This PR changes how match splitters are generated: Rather than rewriting
the match statement, the match compilation pipeline is used again.
The benefits are:
* Re-doing the match compilation means we can do more intelligent book
keeping, e.g. prove overlap assumptions only once and re-use the proof,
or prune the context of the MVar to speed up `contradiction`. This may
have allowed a different solution than #11200.
* It would unblock #11105, as the existing splitter implementation would
have trouble dealing with the matchers produced that way.
* It provides the necessary machinery also for source-exposed “none of
the above” bindings, a feature that we probably want at some point (and
we mostly need to find good syntax for, see #3136, although maybe I
should open a dedicated RFC).
* It allows us to skip costly things during matcher creation that would
only be useful for the splitter, and thus allows performance
improvements like #11508.
* We can drop the existing implementation.
It’s not entirely free:
* We have to run `simpH` twice, once for the match equations and once
for the splitter.
This PR adds a `Unit` assumption to alternatives of the splitter that
would otherwise not have arguments. This fixes#11211.
In practice these argument-less alternatives did not cause wrong
behavior, as the motive when used with `split` is always a function
type. But it is better to be safe here (maybe someone uses splitters in
other ways), it may increase the effectiveness of #10184 and simplifies
#11220.
The perf impact is insignificant in the grand scheme of things on
stdlib, but the change is effective:

This PR shares common functionality relate to equalities between same
constructors, and when these are type-correct. In particular it uses the
more complete logic from `mkInjectivityThm` also in other places, such
as `CasesOnSameCtor` and the deriving code for `BEq`, `DecidableEq`,
`Ord`, for more consistency and better error messages.
This PR introduces an alternative construction for `DecidableEq`
instances that avoids the quadratic overhead of the default
construction.
The usual construction uses a `match` statement that looks at each pair
of constructors, and thus is necessarily quadratic in size. For
inductive data type with dozens of constructors or more, this quickly
becomes slow to process.
The new construction first compares the constructor tags (using the
`.ctorIdx` introduced in #9951), and handles the case of a differing
constructor tag quickly. If the constructor tags match, it uses the
per-constructor-eliminators (#9952) to create a linear-size instance. It
does so by creating a custom “matcher” for a parallel match on the data
types and the `h : x1.ctorIdx = x2.ctorIdx` assumption; this behaves
(and delaborates) like a normal `match` statement, but is implemented in
a bespoke way. This same-constructor-matcher will be useful for
implementing other instances as well.
The new construction produces less efficient code at the moment, so we
use it only for inductive types with 10 or more constructors by default.
The option `deriving.decEq.linear_construction_threshold` can be used to
adjust the threshold; set it to 0 to always use the new construction.
