This PR prefers using `∅` instead of `.empty` functions. We may later
rename `.empty` functions to avoid the naming clash with
`EmptyCollection`, and to better express semantics of functions which
take an optional capacity argument.
This restores all of the imports of `Lean.Data.HashMap` and
`Lean.Data.HashSet` so that users actually see the deprecation warnings
instead of a "declaration not found" error.
TODO: after we delete old code generator, we should replace
`@[alwaysInline, inline]` with `@[alwaysInline]`.
Remainder: we want the old code generator to ignore `@[alwaysInline]`
annotations, in particular, the new ones on `instance` commands that
are actually annotations for the instance methods.
There is no reason for having `MonadIO` anymore. The `MonadLift` type
class is well behaved in the new frontend, the `MonadFinally` solves
the problem at monad stacks such as `ExcepT e IO`.
This commit also changes the type of the IO printing functions.
For example, the type of `IO.println` was
```
def IO.println {m} [MonadIO m] {α} [ToString α] (s : α) : m Unit
```
and now it is just
```
def IO.println {α} [ToString α] (s : α) : IO Unit
```
We rely on the new frontend auto-lifting feature.
That is, if there is an instance `[MonadLiftT IO m]`, then
a term of type `IO a` is automatically coerced to `m a`
We also want a simpler `IO.println` for writing tests.
For example,
```
```
doesn't work because there isn't sufficient information for inferring
the parameter `m` in the previous `IO.println`.
The shortest workaround looked very weird
```
```
I considered adding `IO` as a default value for `m` when we have
`MonadIO m`, as we use `Nat` as the default for `ofNat a`, but it felt
like uncessary complexity.
@Kha The commit seems to work well. The auto-lifting featuring has
been working great for me. There is still room for improvement.
For example, given `MonadLiftT m n`, it doesn't automatically lift
`a -> m b` into `a -> n b`. So, code such as
`foo >>= IO.println`
had to be rewritten as
`foo >>= fun x => IO.println x`
I will add this feature later.
If you have time, please try to play with this feature and figure out
if it is stable enough for making it the default.
That is, if it roboust enough, we can stop using the following idiom
for writing functions that can be lifted automatically.
```
def instantiateLevelMVarsImp (u : Level) : MetaM Level :=
...
def instantiateLevelMVars {m} [MonadLiftT MetaM m] (u : Level) : m Level :=
liftMetaM $ instantiateLevelMVarsImp u
```
I think we only need this idiom when using `MonadControlT` which is
not as common as `MonadLiftT`.
