 The code for `HsForAllTy` is

 {{{#!hs
 mkHsForAllTy exp tvs ctxt     ty = HsForAllTy exp extra (mkHsQTvs tvs)
 cleanCtxt ty
   where -- Separate the extra-constraints wildcard when present
         (cleanCtxt, extra)
           | (L l HsWildcardTy) <- ignoreParens (last (unLoc ctxt)) = (init
 `fmap` ctxt, Just l)
           | otherwise = (ctxt, Nothing)
         ignoreParens (L _ (HsParTy ty)) = ty
         ignoreParens ty                 = ty
 }}}

 The process of cleaning the context calls `ignoreParens` which strips out
 the `HsParTy`. In the process the `AnnOpenP` and `AnnCloseP` attached to
 this are discarded.
