independent of the multi-usage internal "letin_tac"

It was only used in ltac/rewrite which as a plugin is too late to
affect init.

This module contains:
- the former ExtraEnv in pretyping
- a few functions to traverse binders in pretyping.ml and cases.ml
- the part of pretyping dealing with genarg interpretation
The dependency of pretyping in an interpretation of names as names of
variables of identifier is now hidden in GlobEnv (no more explicit
"lvar" management in pretyping.ml). Similarly for the interpretation
of names as terms and for the interpretation of tactics-in-terms.
We keep empty_lvar in Glob_ops for compatibility, even though it is a
bit isolated there.

[Dune](https://github.com/ocaml/dune) is a compositional declarative
build system for OCaml. It provides automatic generation of
`version.ml`, `.merlin`, `META`, `opam`, API documentation; install
management; easy integration with external libraries, test runners,
and modular builds.
In particular, Dune uniformly handles components regardless whether
they live in, or out-of-tree. This greatly simplifies cases where a
plugin [or CoqIde] is checked out in the current working copy but then
distributed separately [and vice-versa]. Dune can thus be used as a
more flexible `coq_makefile` replacement.
For now we provide experimental support for a Dune build. In order to
build Coq + the standard library with Dune type:
```
$ make -f Makefile.dune world
```
This PR includes a preliminary, developer-only preview of Dune for
Coq. There is still ongoing work, see
https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/8052 for tracking status towards
full support.
## Technical description.
Dune works out of the box with Coq, once we have fixed some modularity
issues. The main remaining challenge was to support `.vo` files.
As Dune doesn't support custom build rules yet, to properly build
`.vo` files we provide a small helper script `tools/coq_dune.ml`. The
script will scan the Coq library directories and generate the
corresponding rules for `.v -> .vo` and `.ml4 -> .ml` builds. The
script uses `coqdep` as to correctly output the dependencies of
`.v` files. `coq_dune` is akin to `coq_makefile` and should be able to
be used to build Coq projects in the future.
Due to this pitfall, the build process has to proceed in three stages:
1) build `coqdep` and `coq_dune`; 2) generate `dune` files for
`theories` and `plugins`; 3) perform a regular build with all
targets are in scope.
## FAQ
### Why Dune?
Coq has a moderately complex build system and it is not a secret that
many developer-hours have been spent fighting with `make`.
In particular, the current `make`-based system does offer poor support
to verify that the current build rules and variables are coherent, and
requires significant manual, error-prone. Many variables must be
passed by hand, duplicated, etc... Additionally, our make system
offers poor integration with now standard OCaml ecosystem tools such
as `opam`, `ocamlfind` or `odoc`. Another critical point is build
compositionality. Coq is rich in 3rd party contributions, and a big
shortcoming of the current make system is that it cannot be used to
build these projects; requiring us to maintain a custom tool,
`coq_makefile`, with the corresponding cost.
In the past, there has been some efforts to migrate Coq to more
specialized build systems, however these stalled due to a variety of
reasons. Dune, is a declarative, OCaml-specific build tool that is on
the path to become the standard build system for the OCaml ecosystem.
Dune seems to be a good fit for Coq well: it is well-supported, fast,
compositional, and designed for large projects.
### Does Dune replace the make-based build system?
The current, make-based build system is unmodified by this PR and kept
as the default option. However, Dune has the potential
### Is this PR complete? What does it provide?
This PR is ready for developer preview and feedback. The build system
is functional, however, more work is necessary in order to make Dune
the default for Coq.
The main TODOs are tracked at https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/8052
This PR allows developers to use most of the features of Dune today:
- Modular organization of the codebase; each component is built only
against declared dependencies so components are checked for
containment more strictly.
- Hygienic builds; Dune places all artifacts under `_build`.
- Automatic generation of `.install` files, simplified OPAM workflow.
- `utop` support, `-opaque` in developer mode, etc...
- `ml4` files are handled using `coqp5`, a native-code customized
camlp5 executable which brings much faster `ml4 -> ml` processing.
### What dependencies does Dune require?
Dune doesn't depend on any 3rd party package other than the OCaml compiler.

Without this, the library segment of all .vo except Notations.vo starts
with two TOKEN objects (declaration of tokens "->" and "<-").
This is due to side effects creating these objects during the dynlink
of ltac_plugin.cmxs, more precisely the two Metasyntax.add_token_obj in
Extraargs. It's quite cleaner to register these two side effects via
Mltop.declare_cache_obj, so that the two objects only live in
Notations.vo, and are loaded from there.

The previous implementation was calling a lot of useless unification
even though the net effect of the tactic was simply to add a binding to
the environment.
Interestingly the base tactic was used in several higher level tactics,
including evar and ssreflect pose.
Part of the fix for #8245.

This trace of V7 syntax remained unnoticed (since July 2004).
|
|
|
|
While we were adding a new field into `QuestionMark`, we
decided to go ahead and refactor the constructor to hold
an actual record. This record now holds the name, obligations, and
whether the evar represents a missing record field.
This is used to provide better error messages on missing record
fields.

Catched by compiling the ml files from ml4.

This moves the typing code from the macro expansion to the extension
registering mechanism, bringing in more static safety. We also seize
the opportunity to remove dead code in the macro.
|
|
We make it possible to deprecate tactics defined by `Ltac`, `Tactic
Notation` or ML.
For the first two variants, we anticipate the syntax of attributes:
`#[deprecated(since = "XX", note = "YY")]`
In ML, the syntax is:
```
let reflexivity_depr =
let open CWarnings in
{ since = "8.5"; note = "Use admit instead." }
TACTIC EXTEND reflexivity DEPRECATED reflexivity_depr
[ "reflexivity" ] -> [ Tactics.intros_reflexivity ]
END
```
A warning is shown at the point where the tactic is used (either
a direct call or when defining another tactic):
Tactic `foo` is deprecated since XX. YY
YY is typically meant to be "Use bar instead.".
|
|
This is a function that keeps beeing asked or reimplemented. It doesn't hurt
adding it to the Ltac API.
|
|
We deprecate the corresponding functions in Pcoq.Gram. The motivation is
that the Gram module is used as an argument to Camlp5 functors, so that
it is not stable by extension. Enforcing that its type is literally the
one Camlp5 expects ensures robustness to extension statically.
Some really internal functions have been bluntly removed. It is unlikely
that they are used by external plugins.

It was forcing the macro to generate code that was useless.

The parser is stupid and the syntax is almost the same as the previous one.
The only difference is that one needs to wrap OCaml code between { braces }
so that quoting works out of the box.
Files requiring such a syntax are handled specifically by the type system
and need to have a .mlg extension instead of a .ml4 one.

The test isn't quite the one in #7421 because that use of algebraic
universes is wrong.

reference was defined as Ident or Qualid, but the qualid type already
permits empty paths. So we had effectively two representations for
unqualified names, that were not seen as equal by eq_reference.
We remove the reference type and replace its uses by qualid.
|
|
Although the fix is not a proper one, it seems to solve
every instance of #2800 that could be tested.
|
|
We move the last 3 types to more adequate places.

|
This gets `Tactypes` closer to `tactics/`, however some legacy stuff
blocks it in `proofs`. We consider that is satisfactory for now.
|
|
- move_location to proofs/logic.
- intro_pattern_naming to Namegen.

Previously to this patch, `Notation_term` contained information about
both parsing and notation interpretation.
We split notation grammar to a file `parsing/notation_gram` as to make
`interp/` not to depend on some parsing structures such as entries.

Continuing the interface cleanup we place `Constrexpr` in the
internalization module, which is the one that eliminates it.
This slims down `pretyping` considerably, including removing the
`Univdecls` module which existed only due to bad dependency ordering
in the first place. Thanks to @ Skyskimmer we also remove a duplicate
`univ_decl` definition among `Misctypes` and `UState`.
This is mostly a proof of concept yet as it depends on quite a few
patches of the tree. For sure some tweaks will be necessary, but it
should be good for review now.
IMO the tree is now in a state where we can could easy eliminate more
than 10 modules without any impact, IMHO this is a net saving API-wise
and would help people to understand the structure of the code better.

We remove most of what was deprecated in `Term`. Now, `intf` and
`kernel` are almost deprecation-free, tho I am not very convinced
about the whole `Term -> Constr` renaming but I'm afraid there is no
way back.
Inconsistencies with the constructor policy (see #6440) remain along
the code-base and I'm afraid I don't see a plan to reconcile them.
The `Sorts` deprecation is hard to finalize, opening `Sorts` is not a
good idea as someone added a `List` module inside it.
