This PR makes it harder to create "fake" theorems about definitions that
are stubbed-out with `sorry` by ensuring that each `sorry` is not
definitionally equal to any other. For example, this now fails:
```lean
example : (sorry : Nat) = sorry := rfl -- fails
```
However, this still succeeds, since the `sorry` is a single
indeterminate `Nat`:
```lean
def f (n : Nat) : Nat := sorry
example : f 0 = f 1 := rfl -- succeeds
```
One can be more careful by putting parameters to the right of the colon:
```lean
def f : (n : Nat) → Nat := sorry
example : f 0 = f 1 := rfl -- fails
```
Most sources of synthetic sorries (recall: a sorry that originates from
the elaborator) are now unique, except for elaboration errors, since
making these unique tends to cause a confusing cascade of errors. In
general, however, such sorries are labeled. This enables "go to
definition" on `sorry` in the Infoview, which brings you to its origin.
The option `set_option pp.sorrySource true` causes the pretty printer to
show source position information on sorries.
**Details:**
* Adds `Lean.Meta.mkLabeledSorry`, which creates a sorry that is labeled
with its source position. For example, `(sorry : Nat)` might elaborate
to
```
sorryAx (Lean.Name → Nat) false
`lean.foo.12.8.12.13.8.13._sorry._@.lean.foo._hyg.153
```
It can either be made unique (like the above) or merely labeled. Labeled
sorries use an encoding that does not impact defeq:
```
sorryAx (Unit → Nat) false (Function.const Lean.Name ()
`lean.foo.14.7.13.7.13.69._sorry._@.lean.foo._hyg.174)
```
* Makes the `sorry` term, the `sorry` tactic, and every elaboration
failure create labeled sorries. Most are unique sorries, but some
elaboration errors are labeled sorries.
* Renames `OmissionInfo` to `DelabTermInfo` and adds configuration
options to control LSP interactions. One field is a source position to
use for "go to definition". This is used to implement "go to definition"
on labeled sorries.
* Makes hovering over a labeled `sorry` show something friendlier than
that full `sorryAx` expression. Instead, the first hover shows the
simplified ``sorry `«lean.foo:48:11»``. Hovering over that hover shows
the full `sorryAx`. Setting `set_option pp.sorrySource true` makes
`sorry` always start with printing with this source position
information.
* Removes `Lean.Meta.mkSyntheticSorry` in favor of `Lean.Meta.mkSorry`
and `Lean.Meta.mkLabeledSorry`.
* Changes `sorryAx` so that the `synthetic` argument is no longer
optional.
* Gives `addPPExplicitToExposeDiff` awareness of labeled sorries. It can
set `pp.sorrySource` when source positions differ.
* Modifies the delaborator framework so that delaborators can set Info
themselves without it being overwritten.

Inspired by [this Zulip
thread](https://leanprover.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/287929-mathlib4/topic/Is.20a.20.60definition_wanted.60.20keyword.20possible.3F/near/477260277).
previously, the empty `MessageData` (`m!""`) was used to indicate “no
message”, and `throwTacticEx` would format the message differently then.
But the semantics of `MessageData.isEmpty` isn't entirely clear in the
presence of lazy message data (e.g. `.ofPPFormat`).
So to avoid wondering what `isEmpty` should do there, let's simply use
an optional argument to `throwTacticEx` and get rid of
`MessageData.isEmpty`.
When using `set_option tactic.skipAssignedInstances false`, `simp` and
`rw` will synthesize instance implicit arguments even if they have
assigned by unification. If the synthesized argument does not match the
assigned one the rewrite is not performed. This option has been added
for backward compatibility.
We are considering removing `.` as an alternative for `·` in the
lambda dot notation (e.g., `(·+·)`).
Reasons:
- `.` is not a perfect replacement for `·` (e.g., `(·.insert ·)`)
- `.` is too overloaded: `(f.x)` and `(f .x)` and `(f . x)`. We want to keep the first two.
@Kha I marked the corresponding methods as `protected`.
I currently can't stand `throw_error`, and I am optimistic about
server highlighting feature you are working on :)
We need `MetaM` methods such as `isProp` to improve `ppGoal`.
This commit also moves `currNamespace` and `openDecls` to
`Core.Context`. Without this change, `Meta.ppExpr` was not taking
`open` commands into account.
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`.
@Kha I am also tracking `currNamespace` and `openDecls`.
BTW, I also tried an experiment where I added `currNamespace` and
`openDecls` to `Meta.Context`, but it looked weird. This information
is only needed in the elaborator and pretty printer.
The `PPContext` object should contain everything you need. You
can put `currNamespace` and `openDecls` in the `Delaborator.Context`.
The idea is to make clear that the field `posponed` is transient
state. It is only used during `isDefEq`.
The refactoring was motivated by a bug I found where the `posponed`
constraints were not being handled correctly. For example,
the `check (e : Expr)` method was returning `true`, but leaving pending
universe constraints at `postponed`.
