NOTE: caseOneAlt before caseCon'

When you put a bang on a signal argument:
    f :: Signal d a -> _
    f !x = ...
GHC generates a case like:
    case x of
      _ :- _ -> ...

When this f is inlined in an:
    g = f (pure False)
And clash does its Signal d a ~ a thing we get:
    g = case False of
      _ :- _ -> ...
Because no pattern matches caseCon transforms this into
    g = undefined

By trying caseOneAlt first clash can instead drop the case
and use the body of the single alternative.

-- | Tries to eliminate existentials by using heuristics to determine what the

--      Nil       :: Vec 0 a
--      Cons x xs :: a -> Vec n a -> Vec (n + 1) a

--    null :: forall n . Vec n Bool -> Bool
--    null v =
--      case v of

-- When it's applied to a vector of length 5, this becomes:
--
--    null :: Vec 5 Bool -> Bool
--    null v =
--      case v of
