Refactor (again) the handling of default methods

This patch fixes Trac #4056, by

 a) tidying up the treatment of default method names
 b) removing the 'module' argument to newTopSrcBinder

The details aren't that interesting, but the result
is much tidier. The original bug was a 'nameModule' panic,
caused by trying to find the module of a top-level name.
But TH quotes generate Internal top-level names that don't
have a module, and that is generally a good thing.

Fixing that in turn led to the default-method refactoring,
which also makes the Name for a default method be handled
in the same way as other derived names, generated in BuildTyCl
via a call newImplicitBinder.  Hurrah.

Fix Trac #3965: tighten conditions when deriving Data

It's tricky to set up the context for a Data instance.  I got it wrong
once, and fixed it -- hence the "extra_constraints" in
TcDeriv.inferConstraints.

generated when T :: *->*, and dataCast2 when T :: *->*->*. (See
the code in TcGenDeriv for dataCastX.

In the end I've left it disabled because while I think
it does no harm I don't think it'll do any good either.
But I didn't want to lose the idea totally. There's
a thread called "Storable and constant memory" on
the libraries@haskell.org list (Apr 2010) about it.

Note [Matching cases]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
{- NOTE: This idea is currently disabled.  It really only works if
         the primops involved are OkForSpeculation, and, since
 they have side effects readIntOfAddr and touch are not.
 Maybe we'll get back to this later .  -}

   f (case readIntOffAddr# p# i# realWorld# of { (# s#, n# #) ->
      case touch# fp s# of { _ ->

This happened in a tight loop generated by stream fusion that
Roman encountered.  We'd like to treat this just like the let
case, because the primops concerned are ok-for-speculation.
That is, we'd like to behave as if it had been
   case readIntOffAddr# p# i# realWorld# of { (# s#, n# #) ->
   case touch# fp s# of { _ ->
