WIP: Fix #13363

Sebastian Graf requested to merge wip/T13363 into master

The pattern match checker doesn't handle pattern synonyms (yet); it just regards them as additional data constructors. But that's wrong from the perspective of redudancy checking: A match on a pattern synonym will always lead to an overlap warning, because the mismatch case in ConCon will always return NotCovered, which is unsound.

The proper conservative approximation is to return Covered whenever we mismatched against a pattern synonym.
