/** This phase eliminates ExprTypes `=> T` as types of function parameters, and replaces them by
* nullary function types. More precisely:
*
* For the types of parameter symbols:
*
* => T ==> () => T
*
* Note that `=> T` types are not eliminated in MethodTypes. This is done later at erasure.
* Terms are rewritten as follows:
*
* x ==> x.apply() if x is a parameter that had type => T
*
* Arguments to call-by-name parameters are translated as follows. First, the argument is
* rewritten by the rules
*
* e.apply() ==> e if e.apply() is an argument to a call-by-name parameter
* expr ==> () => expr if other expr is an argument to a call-by-name parameter
*
* This makes the argument compatible with a parameter type of () => T, which will be the
* formal parameter type at erasure. But to be -Ycheckable until then, any argument
* ARG rewritten by the rules above is again wrapped in an application DummyApply(ARG)
* where
*
* DummyApply: [T](() => T): T
*
* is a synthetic method defined in Definitions. Erasure will later strip these DummyApply wrappers.
*
* Note: This scheme to have inconsistent types between method types (whose formal types are still
* ExprTypes and parameter valdefs (which are now FunctionTypes) is not pretty. There are two
* other options which have been abandoned or not yet pursued.
*
* Option 1: Transform => T to () => T also in method and function types. The problem with this is
* that is that it requires to look at every type, and this forces too much, causing
* Cyclic Reference errors. Abandoned for this reason.
*
* Option 2: Merge ElimByName with erasure, or have it run immediately before. This has not been
* tried yet.
