----------------
Nuke ClassContext
----------------
This commit tidies up a long-standing inconsistency in GHC.
The context of a class or instance decl used to be restricted
to predicates of the form
C t1 .. tn
with
type ClassContext = [(Class,[Type])]
but everywhere else in the compiler we used
type ThetaType = [PredType]
where PredType can be any sort of constraint (= predicate).
The inconsistency actually led to a crash, when compiling
class (?x::Int) => C a where {}
I've tidied all this up by nuking ClassContext altogether, and using
PredType throughout. Lots of modified files, but all in
more-or-less trivial ways.
I've also added a check that the context of a class or instance
decl doesn't include a non-inheritable predicate like (?x::Int).
Other things
* rename constructor 'Class' from type TypeRep.Pred to 'ClassP'
(makes it easier to grep for)
* rename constructor HsPClass => HsClassP
HsPIParam => HsIParam
