Note [Evidence for quantified constraints]

GHC/Core/Predicate.hs:198 compiler

The superclass mechanism in GHC.Tc.Solver.Dict.makeSuperClasses risks
taking a quantified constraint like
   (forall a. C a => a ~ b)
and generate superclass evidence
   (forall a. C a => a ~# b)

This is a funny thing: neither isPredTy nor isCoVarType are true
of it.  So we are careful not to generate it in the first place:

in GHC.Tc.Solver.Dict.
