The wrapper for a constructor is an ordinary top-level binding that evaluates
any strict args, unboxes any args that are going to be flattened, and calls
the worker.

We're going to build a constructor that looks like:

        data (Data a, C b) =>  T a b = T1 !a !Int b

        T1 = /\ a b -> 
             \d1::Data a, d2::C b ->
             \p q r -> case p of { p ->
                       case q of { q ->
                       Con T1 [a,b] [p,q,r]}}

Notice that

* d2 is thrown away --- a context in a data decl is used to make sure
  one *could* construct dictionaries at the site the constructor
  is used, but the dictionary isn't actually used.

* We have to check that we can construct Data dictionaries for
  the types a and Int.  Once we've done that we can throw d1 away too.

* We use (case p of q -> ...) to evaluate p, rather than "seq" because
  all that matters is that the arguments are evaluated.  "seq" is 
  very careful to preserve evaluation order, which we don't need
  to be here.

  You might think that we could simply give constructors some strictness
  info, like PrimOps, and let CoreToStg do the let-to-case transformation.
  But we don't do that because in the case of primops and functions strictness
  is a *property* not a *requirement*.  In the case of constructors we need to
  do something active to evaluate the argument.

  Making an explicit case expression allows the simplifier to eliminate
  it in the (common) case where the constructor arg is already evaluated.

Note [Wrappers for data instance tycons]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the case of data instances, the wrapper also applies the coercion turning
the representation type into the family instance type to cast the result of
the wrapper.  For example, consider the declarations

  data family Map k :: * -> *
  data instance Map (a, b) v = MapPair (Map a (Pair b v))

The tycon to which the datacon MapPair belongs gets a unique internal
name of the form :R123Map, and we call it the representation tycon.
In contrast, Map is the family tycon (accessible via
tyConFamInst_maybe). A coercion allows you to move between
representation and family type.  It is accessible from :R123Map via
tyConFamilyCoercion_maybe and has kind

  Co123Map a b v :: {Map (a, b) v :=: :R123Map a b v}

The wrapper and worker of MapPair get the types

        -- Wrapper
  $WMapPair :: forall a b v. Map a (Map a b v) -> Map (a, b) v
  $WMapPair a b v = MapPair a b v `cast` sym (Co123Map a b v)

        -- Worker
  MapPair :: forall a b v. Map a (Map a b v) -> :R123Map a b v

This coercion is conditionally applied by wrapFamInstBody.

It's a bit more complicated if the data instance is a GADT as well!

   data instance T [a] where
        T1 :: forall b. b -> T [Maybe b]
Hence
   Co7T a :: T [a] ~ :R7T a

Now we want

        -- Wrapper
  $WT1 :: forall b. b -> T [Maybe b]
  $WT1 b v = T1 (Maybe b) b (Maybe b) v
                        `cast` sym (Co7T (Maybe b))

        -- Worker
  T1 :: forall c b. (c ~ Maybe b) => b -> :R7T c

We're going to build a record selector unfolding that looks like this:

        data T a b c = T1 { ..., op :: a, ...}
                     | T2 { ..., op :: a, ...}
                     | T3

        sel = /\ a b c -> \ d -> case d of
                                    T1 ... x ... -> x
                                    T2 ... x ... -> x
                                    other        -> error "..."

Similarly for newtypes

        newtype N a = MkN { unN :: a->a }

        unN :: N a -> a -> a
        unN n = coerce (a->a) n
        
We need to take a little care if the field has a polymorphic type:

        data R = R { f :: forall a. a->a }

Then we want

        f :: forall a. R -> a -> a
        f = /\ a \ r = case r of
                          R f -> f a

(not f :: R -> forall a. a->a, which gives the type inference mechanism 
problems at call sites)

Similarly for (recursive) newtypes

        newtype N = MkN { unN :: forall a. a->a }

        unN :: forall b. N -> b -> b
        unN = /\b -> \n:N -> (coerce (forall a. a->a) n)


Note [Naughty record selectors]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A "naughty" field is one for which we can't define a record 
selector, because an existential type variable would escape.  For example:
        data T = forall a. MkT { x,y::a }
We obviously can't define       
        x (MkT v _) = v
Nevertheless we *do* put a RecordSelId into the type environment
so that if the user tries to use 'x' as a selector we can bleat
helpfully, rather than saying unhelpfully that 'x' is not in scope.
Hence the sel_naughty flag, to identify record selectors that don't really exist.

In general, a field is naughty if its type mentions a type variable that
isn't in the result type of the constructor.

Note [GADT record selectors]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For GADTs, we require that all constructors with a common field 'f' have the same
result type (modulo alpha conversion).  [Checked in TcTyClsDecls.checkValidTyCon]
E.g. 
        data T where
          T1 { f :: a } :: T [a]
          T2 { f :: a, y :: b  } :: T [a]
and now the selector takes that type as its argument:
        f :: forall a. T [a] -> a
        f t = case t of
                T1 { f = v } -> v
                T2 { f = v } -> v
Note the forall'd tyvars of the selector are just the free tyvars
of the result type; there may be other tyvars in the constructor's
type (e.g. 'b' in T2).

Note [Selector running example]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It's OK to combine GADTs and type families.  Here's a running example:

        data instance T [a] where 
          T1 { fld :: b } :: T [Maybe b]

The representation type looks like this
        data :R7T a where
          T1 { fld :: b } :: :R7T (Maybe b)

and there's coercion from the family type to the representation type
        :CoR7T a :: T [a] ~ :R7T a

The selector we want for fld looks like this:

        fld :: forall b. T [Maybe b] -> b
        fld = /\b. \(d::T [Maybe b]).
              case d `cast` :CoR7T (Maybe b) of 
                T1 (x::b) -> x

The scrutinee of the case has type :R7T (Maybe b), which can be
gotten by appying the eq_spec to the univ_tvs of the data con.

\begin{code}
mkRecordSelId :: TyCon -> FieldLabel -> Id
mkRecordSelId tycon field_label
    -- Assumes that all fields with the same field label have the same type

%************************************************************************

Selecting a field for a dictionary.  If there is just one field, then
there's nothing to do.  

Dictionary selectors may get nested forall-types.  Thus:

        class Foo a where
          op :: forall b. Ord b => a -> b -> b

Then the top-level type for op is

        op :: forall a. Foo a => 
              forall b. Ord b => 
              a -> b -> b

This is unlike ordinary record selectors, which have all the for-alls
at the outside.  When dealing with classes it's very convenient to
recover the original type signature from the class op selector.

        --      C a -> C a
        -- for a single-op class (after all, the selector is the identity)

Important notes about dict funs and default methods
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dict funs and default methods are *not* ImplicitIds.  Their definition
involves user-written code, so we can't figure out their strictness etc
based on fixed info, as we can for constructors and record selectors (say).

We build them as LocalIds, but with External Names.  This ensures that
they are taken to account by free-variable finding and dependency
analysis (e.g. CoreFVs.exprFreeVars).

Why shouldn't they be bound as GlobalIds?  Because, in particular, if
they are globals, the specialiser floats dict uses above their defns,
which prevents good simplifications happening.  Also the strictness
analyser treats a occurrence of a GlobalId as imported and assumes it
contains strictness in its IdInfo, which isn't true if the thing is
bound in the same module as the occurrence.

It's OK for dfuns to be LocalIds, because we form the instance-env to
pass on to the next module (md_insts) in CoreTidy, afer tidying
and globalising the top-level Ids.

BUT make sure they are *exported* LocalIds (mkExportedLocalId) so 
that they aren't discarded by the occurrence analyser.

\begin{code}
mkDefaultMethodId dm_name ty = mkExportedLocalId dm_name ty

mkDictFunId :: Name      -- Name to use for the dict fun;
            -> [TyVar]

    dfun_ty = mkSigmaTy inst_tyvars dfun_theta (mkDictTy clas inst_tys)

These Ids can't be defined in Haskell.  They could be defined in
unfoldings in the wired-in GHC.Prim interface file, but we'd have to
ensure that they were definitely, definitely inlined, because there is
no curried identifier for them.  That's what mkCompulsoryUnfolding
does.  If we had a way to get a compulsory unfolding from an interface
file, we could do that, but we don't right now.

unsafeCoerce# isn't so much a PrimOp as a phantom identifier, that
just gets expanded into a type coercion wherever it occurs.  Hence we
add it as a built-in Id with an unfolding here.

The type variables we use here are "open" type variables: this means
they can unify with both unlifted and lifted types.  Hence we provide
another gun with which to shoot yourself in the foot.

@realWorld#@ used to be a magic literal, \tr{void#}.  If things get
nasty as-is, change it back to a literal (@Literal@).

voidArgId is a Local Id used simply as an argument in functions
where we just want an arg to avoid having a thunk of unlifted type.
E.g.
        x = \ void :: State# RealWorld -> (# p, q #)

This comes up in strictness analysis

realWorldPrimId -- :: State# RealWorld

        -- which in turn makes Simplify.interestingArg return True,
        -- which in turn makes INLINE things applied to realWorld# likely
        -- to be inlined

voidArgId :: Id
voidArgId       -- :: State# RealWorld
  = mkSysLocal FSLIT("void") voidArgIdKey realWorldStatePrimTy

GHC randomly injects these into the code.

@patError@ is just a version of @error@ for pattern-matching
failures.  It knows various ``codes'' which expand to longer
strings---this saves space!

@absentErr@ is a thing we put in for ``absent'' arguments.  They jolly
well shouldn't be yanked on, but if one is, then you will get a
friendly message from @absentErr@ (rather than a totally random
crash).

@parError@ is a special version of @error@ which the compiler does
not know to be a bottoming Id.  It is used in the @_par_@ and @_seq_@
templates, but we don't ever expect to generate code for it.
