Fix kind inference for data types. Again.

This patch improves kcConDecls, when we are inferring the kind
of a data type decl.

Specifically

* In kcConDecls/kcConDecl make it clear that the tc_res_kind argument
  is only used in the H98 case; and in that case there is not result
  kind signature; and hence no need for the disgusting splitPiTys in
  kcConDecls (now thankfully gone).

  The GADT case is a bit different to before, and much nicer.
  This is what fixes #18891.

  See Note [kcConDecls: kind-checking data type decls]

* Do not look at the constructor decls of a data/newtype instance
  in tcDataFamInstanceHeader. See new
  Note [Kind inference for data family instances]

  This causes a few knock-on effects in the tests suite, because
  we require more information than before in the instance /header/.

  New user-manual material about this in "Kind inference in data type
  declarations" and "Kind inference for data/newtype instance
  declarations".

* Minor improvement in kcTyClDecl, combining GADT and H98 case.

Fixes #18891

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+kcConDecls is used when we are inferring the kind of the type
+constructor in a data type declaration.  E.g.
+    data T f a = MkT (f a)
+we want to infer the kind of 'f' and 'a'. The basic plan is described
+in Note [Inferring kinds for type declarations]; here are doing Step 2.
+
+In the H98 case, for unlifted newtypes only, we need the result kind of
+the TyCon, to unify with the argument kind.  The tycon's result kind
+is not used at all in the GADT case.
+
+In the GADT case we may have this:
+   data T f a where
+      MkT :: forall g b. g b -> T g b
+Notice that the variables f,a, and g,b are quite distinct.
+Nevertheless, this decl must still influence the kind T (which is,
+remember Step 1, something like T :: kappa1 -> kappa2 -> Type), otherwise
+we'd infer the bogus kind T :: forall k1 k2. k1 -> k2 -> Type.
+
+The data constructor type influences the kind of T simply by
+kind-checking the result type (T g b), which will force 'f' and 'g' to
+have the same kinds. This is the call to
+    tcCheckLHsType res_ty (TheKind con_res_kind)
+Because this is the result type of an arrow, we know the kind must be
+of form (TYPE rr), and we get better error messages if we enforce that
+here (e.g. test gadt10).

+Note [Kind inference for data family instances]
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Consider this GADT-style data type declaration, where I have used
+fresh variables in the data constructor's type, to stress that c,d are
+quite distinct from a,b.
+   data T a b where
+     MkT :: forall c d. c d -> T c d
+
+Following Note [Inferring kinds for type declarations] in GHC.Tc.TyCl,
+to infer T's kind, we initially give T :: kappa, a monomorpic kind,
+gather constraints from the header and data constructors, and conclude
+   T :: (kappa1 -> type) -> kappa1 -> Type
+Then we generalise, giving
+   T :: forall k. (k->Type) -> k -> Type
+
+Now what about a data /instance/ decl
+   data family T :: forall k. (k->Type) -> k -> Type
+
+   data instance T p Int where ...
+
+No doubt here! The poly-kinded T is instantiated with k=Type, so the
+header really looks like
+   data instance T @Type (p :: Type->Type) Int where ...
+
+But what about this?
+   data instance T p q where
+      MkT :: forall r. r Int -> T r Int
+
+So what kind do 'p' and 'q' have?  No clues from the header, but from
+the data constructor we can clearly see that (r :: Type->Type).  Does
+that mean that the the /entire data instance/ is instantiated at Type,
+like this?
+   data instance T @Type (p :: Type->Type) (q :: Type) where
+      ...
+
+Not at all! This is a /GADT/-style decl, so the kind argument might
+be specialised in this particular data constructor, thus:
+   data instance T @k (p :: k->Type) (q :: k) where
+     MkT :: forall (r :: Type -> Type).
+            r Int -> T @Type r Int
+(and perhaps specialised differently in some other data
+constructor MkT2).
+
+The key difference in this case and 'data T' at the top of this Note
+is that we have no known kind for 'data T'. We thus forbid different
+specialisations of T in its constructors, in an attempt to avoid
+inferring polymorphic recursion. In data family T, however, there is
+no problem with polymorphic recursion: we already /fully know/ T's
+kind -- that came from the family declaration, and is not influenced
+by the data instances -- and hence we /can/ specialise T's kind
+differently in different GADT data constructors.
+
+SHORT SUMMARY: in a data instance decl, it's not clear whether kind
+constraints arising from the data constructors should be considered
+local to the (GADT) data /constructor/ or should apply to the entire
+data instance.
+
+DESIGN CHOICE: in data/newtype family instance declarations, we ignore
+the /data constructor/ declarations altogether, looking only at the
+data instance /header/.
+
+Observations:
+* This choice is simple to describe, as well as simple to implment.
+  For a data/newtype instance decl, the instance kinds are influenced
+  /only/ by the header.
+
+* We could treat Haskell-98 style data-instance decls differently, by
+  taking the data constructors into account, since there are no GADT
+  issues.
+
+* Ditto newtypes, since again you can't have newtype GADTs.
+
+But for now at least, we keep the simplest choice. See #18891 and !4419
+for more discussion of this issue.a
