Some further observations about `withDict`:

+ The local `let` and INLINE pragma delays inlining `wd` until after the

+ have calls
+ withDict A k
+ withDict B k
+ where k1, k2 :: C T -> blah. If we inline those withDict calls we'll get
+ k (A |> co1)
+ k (B |> co2)
+ and the Specialiser will assume that those arguments (of type `C T`) are
+ the same, will specialise `k` for that type, and will call the same,
+ specialised function from both call sites. #21575 is a concrete case in point.
- - If the constant-folding rule were to fail, we want to throw a compile-time

+ Solution: delay inlining `withDict` until after the specialiser; that is,
