Previously, we had an elaborate mechanism for selecting the warnings to generate in the presence of different `COMPLETE` matching groups that, albeit finely-tuned, produced wrong results from an end user's perspective in some cases (#13363). The underlying issue is that at the point where the `ConVar` case has to commit to a particular `COMPLETE` group, there's not enough information to do so and the status quo was to just enumerate all possible complete sets nondeterministically. The `getResult` function would then pick the outcome according to metrics defined in accordance to the user's guide. But crucially, it lacked knowledge about the order in which affected clauses appear, leading to the surprising behavior in #13363. In !1010 we taught the term oracle to reason about literal values a variable can certainly not take on. This MR extends that idea to `ConLike`s and thereby fixes #13363: Instead of committing to a particular `COMPLETE` group in the `ConVar` case, we now split off the matching constructor incrementally and record the newly covered case as a refutable shape in the oracle. Whenever the set of refutable shapes covers any `COMPLETE` set, the oracle recognises vacuosity of the uncovered set. This patch goes a step further: Since at this point the information in value abstractions is merely a cut down representation of what the oracle knows, value abstractions degenerate to a single `Id`, the semantics of which is determined by the oracle state `Delta`. Value vectors become lists of `[Id]` given meaning to by a single `Delta`, value set abstractions (of which the uncovered set is an instance) correspond to a union of `Delta`s which instantiate the same `[Id]` (akin to models of formula).
