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:
```
~/lean4 $ build/release/stage1/bin/lean tests/lean/run/matchSplitStats.lean
969 splitters found
455 splitters are const defs
~/lean4 $ build/release/stage2/bin/lean tests/lean/run/matchSplitStats.lean
969 splitters found
829 splitters are const defs
```
This PR lets the match compilation procedure use sparse case analysis
when the patterns only match on some but not all constructors of an
inductive type. This way, less code is produce. Before, code handling
each of the other cases was then optimized and commoned-up by later
compilation pipeline, but that is wasteful to do.
In some cases this will prevent Lean from noticing that a match
statement is complete
because it performs less case-splitting for the unreachable case. In
this case, give explicit
patterns to perform the deeper split with `by contradiction` as the
right-hand side.
At least temporarily, there is also the option to disable this behaviour
with
```
set_option backwards.match.sparseCases false
```
