ApiAnnotations : mkGadtDecl discards annotations for HsFunTy

When mkGadtDecl is presented wih a HsFunTy it discards the SrcSpan, thus disconnecting any annotations on the HsFunTy.

mkGadtDecl names (L ls (HsForAllTy imp Nothing qvars cxt tau))
  = return $ mk_gadt_con names
  where
    (details, res_ty)           -- See Note [Sorting out the result type]
      = case tau of
          L _ (HsFunTy (L l (HsRecTy flds)) res_ty)
                                            -> (RecCon (L l flds), res_ty)
          _other                                    -> (PrefixCon [], tau)
...
