ApiAnnotations : RdrHsSyn.isFunLhs discards parentheses

The RdrHsSyn.isFunLhs function has the following

isFunLhs e = go e []
 where
   go (L loc (HsVar f)) es
        | not (isRdrDataCon f)   = return (Just (L loc f, False, es))
   go (L _ (HsApp f e)) es       = go f (e:es)
   go (L _ (HsPar e))   es@(_:_) = go e es

The treatment of HsPar means that any parentheses around an infix function will be discarded.

e.g.

(f =*= g) sa i = f (toF sa i) =^= g (toG sa i)

will lose the ( before f and the closing one after g
