-------------------------------------------+-------------------------------
During working on GHC, I found these outdated comments and function names.
The ForPlugins renaming is DynamicLoading.hs is motivated by the fact that
chnage 57d6798 crippled the function in a way that now it can only be used
while handling Plugins. Therefore the name should warn the programmer to
this fact.
The hptInstances comment has also been outdated, when someone needed to
add the `ModuleName -> Bool` predicate to use this same function for
handling ghc and ghci with shared code.
The attached patch is trivial renames/comments.
