Narrow the dont-decompose-newtype test

Following #22924 this patch narrows the test that stops
us decomposing newtypes.  The key change is the use of
noGivenNewtypeReprEqs in GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical.canTyConApp.

We went to and fro on the solution, as you can see in #22924.
The result is carefully documented in
  Note [Decomoposing newtype equalities]

On the way I had revert most of
  commit 3e827c3f74ef76d90d79ab6c4e71aa954a1a6b90
  Author: Richard Eisenberg <rae at cs.brynmawr.edu>
  Date:   Mon Dec 5 10:14:02 2022 -0500

    Do newtype unwrapping in the canonicaliser and rewriter

    See Note [Unwrap newtypes first], which has the details.

It turns out that

(a) 3e827c3f makes GHC behave worse on some recursive newtypes
    (see one of the tests on this commit)
(b) the finer-grained test (namely noGivenNewtypeReprEqs) renders
    3e827c3f unnecessary

 Conclusion: we must unwrap newtypes before decomposing them. This happens
 in `can_eq_newtype_nc`
 
-But even this is challenging. Here are two cases to consider:
-
-Case 1:
-
-  newtype Age = MkAge Int
-  [G] c
-  [W] w1 :: IO Age ~R# IO Int
-
-Case 2:
-
-  newtype A = MkA [A]
-  [W] A ~R# [A]
-
-For Case 1, recall that IO is an abstract newtype. Then read Note
-[Decomposing newtype equalities]. According to that Note, we should not
-decompose w1, because we have an Irred Given. Yet we still want to solve
-the wanted!  We can do so by unwrapping the (non-abstract) Age newtype
-underneath the IO, giving
-   [W] w2 :: IO Int ~R# IO Int
-   w1 = (IO unwrap-Age ; w2)
-where unwrap-Age :: Age ~R# Int. Now we case solve w2 by reflexivity;
-see Note [Eager reflexivity check].
-
-Conclusion: unwrap newtypes (deeply, inside types) in the rewriter:
-specifically in GHC.Tc.Solver.Rewrite.rewrite_newtype_app.
-
-Yet for Case 2, deep rewriting would be a disaster: we would loop.
-  [W] A ~R# [A] ---> {unwrap}
-                     [W] [A] ~R# [[A]]
-                ---> {decompose}
-                     [W] A ~R# [A]
-
-In this case, we just want to unwrap newtypes /at the top level/, allowing us
-to succeed via Note [Eager reflexivity check]:
-  [W] A ~R# [A] ---> {unwrap at top level only}
-                     [W] [A] ~R# [A]
-                ---> {reflexivity} success
-
-Conclusion: to satisfy Case 1 and Case 2, we unwrap
-* /both/ at top level, in can_eq_nc'
-* /and/ deeply, in the rewriter, rewrite_newtype_app
-
-The former unwraps outer newtypes (when the data constructor is in scope).
-The latter unwraps deeply -- but it won't be invoked in Case 2, when we can
-recognize an equality between the types [A] and [A] before rewriting
-deeply.
-
-This "before" business is delicate -- there is still a real risk of a loop
-in the type checker with recursive newtypes -- but I think we're doomed to do
-*something* delicate, as we're really trying to solve for equirecursive
-type equality. Bottom line for users: recursive newtypes are dangerous.
-See also Section 5.3.1 and 5.3.4 of
+We did flirt with making the /rewriter/ expand newtypes, rather than
+doing it in `can_eq_newtype_nc`.   But with recursive newtypes we want
+to be super-careful about expanding!
+
+   newtype A = MkA [A]   -- Recursive!
+
+   f :: A -> [A]
+   f = coerce
+
+We have [W] A ~R# [A].  If we rewrite [A], it'll expand to
+   [[[[[...]]]]]
+and blow the reduction stack.  See Note [Newtypes can blow the stack]
+in GHC.Tc.Solver.Rewrite.  But if we expand only the /top level/ of
+both sides, we get
+   [W] [A] ~R# [A]
+which we can, just, solve by reflexivity.
+
+So we simply unwrap, on-demand, at top level, in `can_eq_newtype_nc`.
+
+This is all very delicate. There is a real risk of a loop in the type checker
+with recursive newtypes -- but I think we're doomed to do *something*
+delicate, as we're really trying to solve for equirecursive type
+equality. Bottom line for users: recursive newtypes do not play well with type
+inference for representational equality.  See also Section 5.3.1 and 5.3.4 of
 "Safe Zero-cost Coercions for Haskell" (JFP 2016).

-  But what does "any Given equalities that could later solve it" mean, precisely?

-  could include [G] (a b) ~ (c d), or even just [G] c.  But it'll definitely
-  be an CIrredCan.  So we settle for having no CIrredCans at all, which is
-  conservative but safe. See noGivenIrreds and #22331.
+  But what precisely does it mean to say "any Given equalities that could
+  later solve it"?
+
+  In #22924 we had
+     [G] f a ~R# a     [W] Const (f a) a ~R# Const a a
+  where Const is an abstract newtype.  If we decomposed the newtype, we
+  could solve.  Not-decomposing on the grounds that (f a ~R# a) might turn
+  into (Const (f a) a ~R# Const a a) seems a bit silly.
+
+  In #22331 we had
+     [G] N a ~R# N b   [W] N b ~R# N a
+  (where N is abstract so we can't unwrap). Here we really /don't/ want to
+  decompose, because the /only/ way to solve the Wanted is from that Given
+  (with a Sym).
+
+  In #22519 we had
+     [G] a <= b     [W] IO Age ~R# IO Int
+
+  (where IO is abstract so we can't unwrap, and newtype Age = Int; and (<=)
+  is a type-level comparison on Nats).  Here we /must/ decompose, despite the
+  existence of an Irred Given, or we will simply be stuck.  (Side note: We
+  flirted with deep-rewriting of newtypes (see discussion on #22519 and
+  !9623) but that turned out not to solve #22924, and also makes type
+  inference loop more often on recursive newtypes.)
+
+  The currently-implemented compromise is this:
+
+    we decompose [W] N s ~R# N t unless there is a [G] N s' ~ N t'
+
+  that is, a Given Irred equality with both sides headed with N.
+  See the call to noGivenNewtypeReprEqs in canTyConApp.
+
+  This is not perfect.  In principle a Given like [G] (a b) ~ (c d), or
+  even just [G] c, could later turn into N s ~ N t.  But since the free
+  vars of a Given are skolems, or at least untouchable unification
+  variables, this is extremely unlikely to happen.
 
-  Well not 100.0% safe. There could be a CDictCan with some un-expanded
-  superclasses; but only in some very obscure recursive-superclass
-  situations.
+  Another worry: there could, just, be a CDictCan with some
+  un-expanded equality superclasses; but only in some very obscure
+  recursive-superclass situations.
 
-If there are no Irred Givens (which is quite common) then we will
-successfuly decompose [W] (IO Age) ~R (IO Int), and solve it.  But
-that won't happen and [W] (IO Age) ~R (IO Int) will be stuck.
-We /could/, however, be a bit more aggressive about decomposition;
