Type-checking plugins can now directly rewrite type-families. The TcPlugin record is given a new field, tcPluginRewrite. The plugin specifies how to rewrite certain type-families with a value of type `UniqFM TyCon TcPluginRewriter`, where: type TcPluginRewriter = RewriteEnv -- Rewriter environment -> [Ct] -- Givens -> [TcType] -- type family arguments -> TcPluginM TcPluginRewriteResult data TcPluginRewriteResult = TcPluginNoRewrite | TcPluginRewriteTo { tcPluginRewriteTo :: Reduction , tcRewriterNewWanteds :: [Ct] } When rewriting an exactly-saturated type-family application, GHC will first query type-checking plugins for possible rewritings before proceeding. Includes some changes to the TcPlugin API, e.g. removal of the EvBindsVar parameter to the TcPluginM monad.sheaf authoredType-checking plugins can now directly rewrite type-families.
