Michal's work on #10982, #11098, refactored the handling of named wildcards by making them more like ordinary type variables. This patch takes the same idea to its logical conclusion, resulting in a much tidier, tighter implementation. Read Note [The wildcard story for types] in HsTypes. Changes: * Named wildcards are ordinary type variables, throughout * HsType no longer has a data constructor for named wildcards (was NamedWildCard in HsWildCardInfo). Named wildcards are simply HsTyVars * Similarly named wildcards disappear from Template Haskell * I refactored RnTypes to avoid polluting LocalRdrEnv with something as narrow as named wildcards. Instead the named wildcard set is carried in RnTyKiEnv. There is a submodule update for Haddock.
