    Allow a header to be specified in a CTYPE pragma · 7b24c3ff

    You can now say
        data {-# CTYPE "some_header.h" "the C type" #-} Foo = ...
    
    I think it's rare that this will actually be needed. If the
    header for a CAPI FFI import includes a
        void f(ctype x);
    prototype then ctype must already be defined.
    
    However, if the header only has
        #define f(p) p->j
    then the type need not be defined.
    
    But either way, it seems good practice for us to specify the header that
    we need.
