This wasn't necessary before, since we always inlined, but since we can
now postpone things longer and don't always inline until much later, we
need to know what names everything refers to earlier.
We can't refine by a name in Rig0 because we can't assume it covers all
possibilities, so only refine by them at the end, at which point we
check that there's only one case left (otherwise we have to match on it,
which is not allowed for an erased thing)
With the --yaffle flag, you get the old behaviour which is to invoke the
checker for the core theory (and all the tests are updated appropriately
for this).
This gives useful information for expression search, because we can add
lambdas while we're still building the environment, and start looking at
locals after that.
Mostly direct from Blodwen (some minor modifications to deal with new
way of going into a new scope in the elaborator as well as the usual
bits dealing with name lookup and Glued terms)
And process them on loading. We record that hints need saving out when
adding them, and clear that list unless we happen to be reexporting the
thing we've just read (import public).
Like Idris 1, these are implicitly added on encountering a repeated name
or a non-constructor application. Unlike Idris 1 (and Blodwen) they are
checking by unification rather than matching (which means in particular
that function argument names can't be bound in dot patterns) which is
slightly less expressive, but better overall because matching is
potentially more error prone.
Slight change of plan: instead of having special names, add Lazy, Inf,
Delay and Force and keywords and elaborate them specially.
Correspondingly, add DelayCase for case trees. Given that implicit
laziness is important, it seems better to do it this way than constantly
check whether the name we're working with is important.
This turns out to make implicit laziness much easier, because the
unifier can flag whether it had to go under a 'Delayed' to succeed, and
report that back to the elaborator which can then insert the necessary
coercion.
Most notably, when elaborating deferring argument, if the hole
standing for the argument is still a hole, fill it in directly rather
than going via unification. This prevents some needless evaluation.
This slows things down a bit because to find the holes and give them the
right multiplicities, we need to normalise all the arguments which might
have been metavariables. Maybe we should skip this if we're not using
anything linear, for efficiency?
As patterns are handled by deciding which side of the as is considered
'used'. In case blocks, that should be the variable name, but in general
it should be the pattern, so IAs now has a flag to say which one.
Need to record which holes are still to be solved (not counting
elaborations where there are user defined holes) and check at the end
that they are now solved.
