    Eta-expand the Simplifier monad · 3d345c96
    Simon Peyton Jones authored and Marge Bot's avatar Marge Bot committed
    This patch eta-expands the Simplifier's monad, using the method
    explained in GHC.Core.Unify Note [The one-shot state monad trick].
    It's part of the exta-expansion programme in #18202.
    
    It's a tiny patch, but is worth a 1-2% reduction in bytes-allocated
    by the compiler.  Here's the list, based on the compiler-performance
    tests in perf/compiler:
    
                        Reduction in bytes allocated
