Un-`wire` Integer type
Integer
is currently a wired-in type for integer-gmp
. This requires replicating its inner structure in TysWiredIn.lhs
, which makes it much harder to change Integer
to a more complex representation (like e.g. for #9281 (closed))
In order to reduce the redundancy (due to wired-in type mirroring) and simplify the code, as suggested by Simon, Integer
should no longer be a wired-in
type but rather become a known-key
-entity.
