    Fix a long-standing bug in the demand analyser
    
    This patch fixes Trac #10148, an outright and egregious
    bug in the demand analyser.
    
    It is explained in Note [Demand on case-alternative binders]
    in Demand.hs.
    
    I did some other minor refactoring.
    
    To my astonishment I got some big compiler perf changes
    
    * perf/compiler/T5837: bytes allocated -76%
    * perf/compiler/T5030: bytes allocated -10%
    * perf/compiler/T3294: max bytes used  -25%
    
    Happy days
