Given the derived `Repr` instance for types with parameters, the absence
of `Repr Empty` can cause `Repr` instance synthesis to fail. For
example, given
```lean
inductive Prim (special : Type) where
| plus
| other : special → Prim special
deriving Repr
```
this works:
```lean
#eval (Prim.plus : Prim Int)
```
but this fails:
```lean
#eval (Prim.plus : Prim Empty)
```
