This file defines the PrM monad and its operations, for use during promotion.

The PrM monad allows reading from a PrEnv environment and writing to a list
of DDec, and is wrapped around a Q.

Note [Tracking local variables]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Handling local variables in singletons-th requires some care. There are three
sorts of local variables that singletons-th tracks:

1. Scoped type variables, e.g.,

     d :: forall a. Maybe a
     d = Nothing :: Maybe a

     e (x :: a) = Nothing :: Maybe a

   In both `d` and `e`, the variable `a` in `:: Maybe a` is scoped.

2. Lambda-bound variables, e.g.,

     f = \x -> x
     g x = x

   In both `f` and `g`, the variable `x` is considered lambda-bound.

3. Let-bound variables, e.g.,

     h =
       let x = 42 in
       x + x

     i = x + x
       where
         x = 42

   In both `h` and `i`, the variable `x` is considered let-bound.

Why does singletons-th need to track local variables? It's because they must
be promoted differently depending on whether they are local or not. Consider:

  j = ... x ...

When promoting the `j` function to a type family `J`, there are four possible
ways of promoting `x`:

* If `x` is a scoped type variable, then `x` must be promoted to the same
  name. This is because promoting a type variable to a kind variable is a
  no-op. For instance, we would promote this:

    j (z :: x) = (z :: x)

  Here, `(%%)`, `x`, and `y` are lambda-bound variables. But we cannot promote
  `j` to this type family:

    type family J arg where
      J (z :: x) = (z :: x)

* If `x` is a lambda-bound variable, then `x` must be promoted to a type
  variable. In general, we cannot promote `x` to the same name. Consider this
  example:

    j (%%) x y = x %% y

  Here, `(%%)`, `x`, and `y` are lambda-bound variables. But we cannot promote
  `j` to this type family:

    type family J (%%) x y where
      J (%%) x y = x %% y

  This is because type variable names cannot be symbolic like `(%%)` is. As a
  result, we create a fresh name `ty` and promote each occurrence of `(%%)` to
  `ty`:

    type family J ty x y where
      J ty x y = x `ty` y

  See `mkTyName` in Data.Singletons.TH.Names. In fact, `mkTyName` will also
  freshen alphanumeric names, so it would be more accurate to say that `j` will
  be promoted to this:

    type family J ty x_123 y_456 where
      J ty x_123 y_456 = x_123 `ty` y_456

  Where `x_123` and `y_456` are fresh names that are distinct from `x` and `y`.
  Freshening alphanumeric names like `x` and `y` is probably not strictly
  necessary, but `mkTyName` does it anyway (1) for consistency with symbolic
  names and (2) to make the type-level names easier to tell apart from the
  original term-level names.

* If `x` is a let-bound variable, then `x` must be promoted to something like
  `LetX`, where `LetX` is the lambda-lifted version of `x`. For instance, we
  would promote this:

    j = x
      where
        x = True

  To this:

    type family J where
      J = LetX
    type family LetX where
      LetX = True

* If `x` is not a local variable at all, then `x` must be promoted to something
  like `X`, which is assumed to be a top-level function. For instance, we would
  promote this:

    x = 42
    j = x

  To this:

    type family X where
      X = 42
    type family J where
      J = X

Being able to distinguish between all these sorts of variables requires
recording whether they are scoped, lambda-bound, or let-bound at their binding
sites during promotion and singling. This is primarily done in two places:

* During promotion, the `pr_local_vars` field of `PrEnv` tracks lambda- and
  let-bound variables.

* During singling, the `sg_local_vars` field of `SgEnv` tracks lambda- and
  let-bound variables.

Each of these fields are Maps from the original, term-level Names to the
promoted or singled versions of the Names. The `lookupVarE` functions (which
can be found in both Data.Singletons.TH.Promote.Monad and
Data.Singletons.TH.Single.Monad) are responsible for determining what a
term-level Name should be mapped to.

In addition to `pr_local_vars` and `sg_local_vars`, which include both lambda-
and let-bound variables, `PrEnv` also includes two additional fields for
tracking other sorts of local variables:

* The `pr_scoped_vars` field tracks which scoped type variables are currently
  in scope. As discussed above, promoting an occurrence of a scoped type
  variable is a no-op, and as such, we never need to use `lookupVarE` to figure
  out what a scoped type variable promotes to. As such, there is no need to put
  the scoped type variables in `pr_local_vars`.

  On the other hand, we /do/ need to track the scoped type variables for
  lambda-lifting purposes (see Note [Scoped type variables]), and this is the
  only reason why we bother maintaining the `pr_scoped_vars` field in the first
  place. See the `scopedBind` function, which is responsible for adding new
  scoped type variables to `pr_scoped_vars`.

* The `pr_lambda_vars` field only tracks lambda-bound variables, unlike
  `pr_local_vars`, which also includes let-bound variables. We must do this
  because lambda-bound variables are treated differently during lambda lifting.
  Lambda-lifted functions must close over any lambda-bound variables in scope,
  but /not/ any let-bound variables in scope, since the latter are
  lambda-lifted separately.

  A consequence of this is that when we lambda-bind a variable during promotion
  (see `lambdaBind`), we add the variable to both `pr_lambda_vars` and
  `pr_local_vars`.  When we let-bind a variable during promotion (see
  `letBind`), we only add the variable to `pr_local_vars`. This means that
  `pr_lambda_vars` will always be a subset of `pr_local_vars`.

Because singling does not do anything akin to lambda lifting, `SgEnv` does not
have anything like `sg_scoped_vars` or `sg_lambda_vars`.

Note [Scoped type variables]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Scoped type variables are a particular form of local variable (see Note
[Tracking local variables]). They are arguably the trickiest form of local
variable to handle, and as noted in the singletons README, there are still some
forms of scoped type variables that singletons-th cannot handle during
promotion.

First, let's discuss how singletons-th promotes scoped type variables in
general:

* When promoting a function with a top-level type signature, we annotate each
  argument on the left-hand sides of type family equations with its kind. This
  is usually redundant, but it can sometimes be useful for bringing type
  variables into scope. For example, this:

    f :: forall a. a -> Maybe a
    f x = (Just x :: Maybe a)

  Will be promoted to something like this:

    type F :: forall a. a -> Maybe a
    type family F x where
      F (x :: a) = (Just x :: Maybe a)

  Note that we gave the `x` on the left-hand side of `F`'s equation an explicit
  `:: a` kind signature to ensure that the `a` on the right-hand side of the
  type family equation is in scope.

  The `promoteClause` function in Data.Singletons.TH.Promote is responsible for
  implementing this.

* Sometimes, there are no arguments available to bring type variables into
  scope. In these situations, we can sometimes use `@` in type family equations
  as an alternative. For example, this:

    g :: forall a. Maybe a
    g = (Nothing :: Maybe a)

  Will be promoted to this:

    type G :: forall a. Maybe a
    type family G where
      G @a = (Nothing :: Maybe a)

  Note the `@a` on `G`'s left-hand side. This relies on `G` having a standalone
  kind signature to work.

  The `promoteLetDecName` function in Data.Singletons.TH.Promote is responsible
  for implementing this.

* When lambda-lifting, singletons-th tracks the current set of scoped type
  variables and includes them as explicit arguments when promoting local
  definitions. For example, this:

    h :: forall a. a -> a
    h x = i
      where
        i = (x :: a)

  Will be promoted to this:

    type H :: forall a. a -> a
    type family H x where
      H @a (x :: a) = LetI a x

    type I a x where
      I a x = (x :: a)

  The `I` type family includes both `a` (a scoped type variable) and `x` (a
  lambda-bound variable) as explicit arguments to ensure that they are in scope
  on the right-hand side, which mentions both of them.

  singletons-th uses the `pr_scoped_vars` field of `PrM` to track scoped type
  variables. Whenever new scoped type variables are bound during promotion, the
  `scopedBind` function is used to add the variables to `pr_scoped_vars`.

These three tricks suffice to handle a substantial number of ways that scoped
type variables can be used. The approach is not perfect, however. Here are two
scenarios where singletons-th fails to promote scoped type variables:

* Funky pattern signatures like this one will not work:

    j :: forall a. a -> a
    j (x :: b) = b

  This is because singletons-th will attempt to promote `j` like so:

    type J :: forall a. a -> a
    type J x where
      J @a ((x :: b) :: a) = b

  But unlike in terms, GHC has no way to know that `a` and `b` are meant to
  refer to the same type variable. In order to make this work, we would need to
  substitute all occurrences of `a` with `b` in the type family equation (or
  vice versa), which seems challenging in the general case.

* Scoped type variables that are only mentioned in the return types of local
  definitions may not always work, such as in this example:

    k x = y
      where
        y :: forall b. Maybe b
        y = Nothing :: Maybe b

  singletons-th would promote `k` and `y` to the following type families:

    type K x where
      K x = LetY x

    type LetY x :: Maybe b where
      LetY x = Nothing :: Maybe b

  Note that because `LetY` closes over the `x` argument, it cannot easily be
  given a standalone kind signature, and this prevents us from writing
  `LetY @b x = ...`. Moreover, `LetY` does not have an argument that we can
  attach an explicit `:: b` signature to. (Attaching it to `x` would be
  incorrect, as that would give `LetY` a less general kind.)

  One possible way forward here would be to give type families the ability to
  write result signatures on their left-hand sides, similar to what GHC
  proposal #228
  (https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0228-function-result-sigs.rst)
  offers:

    type LetY x :: Maybe b where
      LetY x :: Maybe b = Nothing :: Maybe b
