 Allow as-patterns in unidirectional patttern synonyms

 This patch implements GHC Proposal #94, described here
    https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/94

 The effect is simply to lift a totally-undocumented restriction to
 unidirecional pattern synonyms, namely that they can't have as-patterns
 or n+k patterns.

 The fix is easy: just remove the checks.

 I also took the opportunity to improve the manual entry for
 the semantics of pattern matching for pattern synonyms.
