This MR substantially refactors the way in which the constraint
solver deals with equality constraints. The big thing is:
* Intead of a pipeline in which we /first/ canonicalise and /then/
interact (the latter including performing unification) the two steps
are more closely integreated into one. That avoids the current
rather indirect communication between the two steps.
The proximate cause for this refactoring is fixing #22194, which involve
solving [W] alpha[2] ~ Maybe (F beta[4])
by doing this:
alpha[2] := Maybe delta[2]
[W] delta[2] ~ F beta[4]
That is, we don't promote beta[4]! This is very like introducing a cycle
breaker, and was very awkward to do before, but now it is all nice.
See GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify Note [Promotion and level-checking] and
Note [Family applications in canonical constraints].
The big change is this:
* Several canonicalisation checks (occurs-check, cycle-breaking,
checking for concreteness) are combined into one new function:
GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.checkTyEqRhs
This function is controlled by `TyEqFlags`, which says what to do
for foralls, type families etc.
* `canEqCanLHSFinish` now sees if unification is possible, and if so,
actually does it: see `canEqCanLHSFinish_try_unification`.
There are loads of smaller changes:
* The on-the-fly unifier `GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.unifyType` has a
cheap-and-cheerful version of `checkTyEqRhs`, called
`simpleUnifyCheck`. If `simpleUnifyCheck` succeeds, it can unify,
otherwise it defers by emitting a constraint. This is simpler than
before.
* I simplified the swapping code in `GHC.Tc.Solver.Equality.canEqCanLHS`.
Especially the nasty stuff involving `swap_for_occurs` and
`canEqTyVarFunEq`. Much nicer now. See
Note [Orienting TyVarLHS/TyFamLHS]
Note [Orienting TyFamLHS/TyFamLHS]
* Added `cteSkolemOccurs`, `cteConcrete`, and `cteCoercionHole` to the
problems that can be discovered by `checkTyEqRhs`.
* I fixed #23199 `pickQuantifiablePreds`, which actually allows GHC to
to accept both cases in #22194 rather than rejecting both.
Yet smaller:
* Added a `synIsConcrete` flag to `SynonymTyCon` (alongside `synIsFamFree`)
to reduce the need for synonym expansion when checking concreteness.
Use it in `isConcreteType`.
* Renamed `isConcrete` to `isConcreteType`
* Defined `GHC.Core.TyCo.FVs.isInjectiveInType` as a more efficient
way to find if a particular type variable is used injectively than
finding all the injective variables. It is called in
`GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.definitely_poly`, which in turn is used quite a
lot.
* Moved `rewriterView` to `GHC.Core.Type`, so we can use it from the
constraint solver.
Fixes #22194, #23199
Compile times decrease by an average of 0.1%; but there is a 7.4%
drop in compiler allocation on T15703.

This MR fixes #23223. The changes are in two places:
* GHC.Tc.Bind.checkMonomorphismRestriction
See the new `Note [When the MR applies]`
We now no longer stupidly attempt to apply the MR when the user
specifies a context, e.g. f :: Eq a => _ -> _
* GHC.Tc.Solver.decideQuantification
See rewritten `Note [Constraints in partial type signatures]`
Fixing this bug apparently breaks three tests:
* partial-sigs/should_compile/T11192
* partial-sigs/should_fail/Defaulting1MROff
* partial-sigs/should_fail/T11122
However they are all symptoms of #23232, so I'm marking them as
expect_broken(23232).
I feel happy about this MR. Nice.

This MR fixes #23224: making approximateWC more clever
See the long `Note [ApproximateWC]` in GHC.Tc.Solver
All this is delicate and ad-hoc -- but it /has/ to be: we are
talking about inferring a type for a binding in the presence of
GADTs, type families and whatnot: known difficult territory.
We just try as hard as we can.
