The testsuite output now contains diagnostic codes, so many tests need
to be updated at once.
We decided it was best to keep the diagnostic codes in the testsuite
output, so that contributors don't inadvertently make changes to the
diagnostic codes.

This patch improves the uniformity of error message formatting by
printing constraints in quotes, as we do for types.

This patch implements eager instantiation, a small but critical change
to the type inference engine, #17173. The main change is this:
When inferring types, always return an instantiated type
(for now, deeply instantiated; in future shallowly instantiated)
There is more discussion in
https://www.tweag.io/posts/2020-04-02-lazy-eager-instantiation.html
There is quite a bit of refactoring in this patch:
* The ir_inst field of GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType.InferResultk
has entirely gone. So tcInferInst and tcInferNoInst have collapsed
into tcInfer.
* Type inference of applications, via tcInferApp and
tcInferAppHead, are substantially refactored, preparing
the way for Quick Look impredicativity.
* New pure function GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.collectHsArgs and applyHsArgs
are beatifully dual. We can see the zipper!
* GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.tcArgs is now much nicer; no longer needs to return
a wrapper
* In HsExpr, HsTypeApp now contains the the actual type argument,
and is used in desugaring, rather than putting it in a mysterious
wrapper.
* I struggled a bit with good error reporting in
Unify.matchActualFunTysPart. It's a little bit simpler than before,
but still not great.
Some smaller things
* Rename tcPolyExpr --> tcCheckExpr
tcMonoExpr --> tcLExpr
* tcPatSig moves from GHC.Tc.Gen.HsType to GHC.Tc.Gen.Pat
Metric Decrease:
T9961
Reduction of 1.6% in comiler allocation on T9961, I think.

This patch does a raft of useful tidy-ups in the type checker.
I've been meaning to do this for some time, and finally made
time to do it en route to ICFP.
1. Modify TcType.ExpType to make a distinct data type,
InferResult for the Infer case, and consequential
refactoring.
2. Define a new function TcUnify.fillInferResult, to fill in
an InferResult. It uses TcMType.promoteTcType to promote
the type to the level of the InferResult.
See TcMType Note [Promoting a type]
This refactoring is in preparation for an improvement
to typechecking pattern bindings, coming next.
I flirted with an elaborate scheme to give better
higher rank inference, but it was just too complicated.
See TcMType Note [Promotion and higher rank types]
3. Add to InferResult a new field ir_inst :: Bool to say
whether or not the type used to fill in the
InferResult should be deeply instantiated. See
TcUnify Note [Deep instantiation of InferResult].
4. Add a TcLevel to SkolemTvs. This will be useful generally
- it's a fast way to see if the type
variable escapes when floating (not used yet)
- it provides a good consistency check when updating a
unification variable (TcMType.writeMetaTyVarRef, the
level_check_ok check)
I originally had another reason (related to the flirting
in (2), but I left it in because it seems like a step in
the right direction.
5. Reduce and simplify the plethora of uExpType,
tcSubType and related functions in TcUnify. It was
such an opaque mess and it's still not great, but it's
better.
6. Simplify the uo_expected field of TypeEqOrigin. Richard
had generatlised it to a ExpType, but it was almost always
a Check type. Now it's back to being a plain TcType which
is much, much easier.
7. Improve error messages by refraining from skolemisation when
it's clear that there's an error: see
TcUnify Note [Don't skolemise unnecessarily]
8. Type.isPiTy and isForAllTy seem to be missing a coreView check,
so I added it
9. Kill off tcs_used_tcvs. Its purpose is to track the
givens used by wanted constraints. For dictionaries etc
we do that via the free vars of the /bindings/ in the
implication constraint ic_binds. But for coercions we
just do update-in-place in the type, rather than
generating a binding. So we need something analogous to
bindings, to track what coercions we have added.
That was the purpose of tcs_used_tcvs. But it only
worked for a /single/ iteration, whereas we may have
multiple iterations of solving an implication. Look
at (the old) 'setImplicationStatus'. If the constraint
is unsolved, it just drops the used_tvs on the floor.
If it becomes solved next time round, we'll pick up
coercions used in that round, but ignore ones used in
the first round.
There was an outright bug. Result = (potentialy) bogus
unused-constraint errors. Constructing a case where this
actually happens seems quite trick so I did not do so.
Solution: expand EvBindsVar to include the (free vars of
the) coercions, so that the coercions are tracked in
essentially the same way as the bindings.
This turned out to be much simpler. Less code, more
correct.
10. Make the ic_binds field in an implication have type
ic_binds :: EvBindsVar
instead of (as previously)
ic_binds :: Maybe EvBindsVar
This is notably simpler, and faster to use -- less
testing of the Maybe. But in the occaional situation
where we don't have anywhere to put the bindings, the
belt-and-braces error check is lost. So I put it back
as an ASSERT in 'setImplicationStatus' (see the use of
'termEvidenceAllowed')
All these changes led to quite bit of error message wibbling

This re-working of the typechecker algorithm is based on
the paper "Visible type application", by Richard Eisenberg,
Stephanie Weirich, and Hamidhasan Ahmed, to be published at
ESOP'16.
This patch introduces -XTypeApplications, which allows users
to say, for example `id @Int`, which has type `Int -> Int`. See
the changes to the user manual for details.
This patch addresses tickets #10619, #5296, #10589.

GHC can't yest build a TypeRep for a type involving kind variables.
(We await kinds = types for that.) But the error message was terrible,
as fixing #10524 reminded me.
This improves it a lot.

In particular
In the type signature for:
f :: Int -> Int
I added the colon
Also reword the "maybe you haven't applied a function to enough arguments?"
suggestion to make grammatical sense.
These tiny changes affect a lot of error messages.

Summary:
Amazingly, the fix for this very old bug is quite simple: when type-checking,
maintain a set of "visible orphan modules" based on the orphans list of
modules which we explicitly imported. When we import an instance and it
is an orphan, we check if it is in the visible modules set, and if not,
ignore it. A little bit of refactoring for when orphan-hood is calculated
happens so that we always know if an instance is an orphan or not.
For GHCi, we preinitialize the visible modules set based on the list of
interactive imports which are active.
Future work: Cache the visible orphan modules set for GHCi, rather than
recomputing it every type-checking round. (But it's tricky what to do when you
/remove/ a module: you need a data structure a little more complicated than
just a set of modules.)
