Summary: Previously, `-Wunused-matches` would fire whenever it detected unused type variables in a type family or data family instance. This can be annoying for users who wish to use type variable names as documentation, as being `-Wall`-compliant would mean that they'd have to prefix many of their type variable names with underscores, making the documentation harder to read. To avoid this, a new warning `-Wunused-type-variables` was created that only encompasses unused variables in family instances. `-Wunused-matches` reverts back to its role of only warning on unused term-level pattern names. Unlike `-Wunused-matches`, `-Wunused-type-variables` is not implied by `-Wall`. Fixes #11451.
