@Kha All files at `src/Lean/Elab` are now being compiled with the new
frontend. We can finally claim our elaborator can elaborate itself :)
It is 22% of our code base.
@Kha `withReader` is a well-behaved version of `adaptReader`. `adaptReader` is
too general, and it often produces counterintuitive elaboration
errors.
Here are two super annoying issues I hit all the time:
1- `adaptReader` + polymorphic code
```
def ex1 : ReaderT Nat IO Unit :=
adaptReader (fun x => x + 1) $
IO.println "foo" -- 3 Errors here failed to synthesize `Monad ?m` and `MonadIO ?m`, and don't know how to synthesize `Type → Type`
```
2- `adaptReader` and notation that requires the expected type
```
structure Context :=
(x y : Nat)
def ex2 : ReaderT Context IO Nat :=
adaptReader (fun s => { s with x := 10 }) $ -- Error at the structure instance
...
```
In the example above, I have to write `fun (s : Context) => ...` to
fix the problem.
The two problems above happen in the old and new frontends. However,
there is a new problem specific for the new frontend. In the new
frontend, a `do` is only elaborated when the expected type is known.
So, `adaptReader (fun ctx => ...) do ...` seldom works :(
As I said above, the issue is that `adaptReader` is too general. Its
type is
```
{ρ ρ' : Type u_1} → {m m' : Type u_1 → Type u_2} → [MonadReaderAdapter ρ ρ' m m'] → {α : Type u_1} → (ρ' → ρ) → m α → m' α
```
`withReader` is a simpler version of `adaptReader`
```
withReader : {ρ : Type u_1} → {m : Type u_1 → Type u_2} → [MonadWithReader ρ m] → {α : Type u_1} → (ρ → ρ) → m α → m α
```
It doesn't have any of the problems above. Moreover, I managed to replace
every single instance of `adaptReader` with `withReader` at the stdlib
and tests. We don't need the `adaptReader` generality.
In the following example, the output produced by `dbgTrace!` was not
being captured. It could break the lean server. At least, it broke the lean4-mode.
```lean
def f (x : Nat) : Nat :=
dbgTrace! ">>> " ++ toString x;
x + 1
eval f 10
```

@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`.
This avoids the temporary files workaround on macOS and Windows, and makes sure
we can process a `#eval` command and write messages to stdout at the same time.
