Subject: Drop named type parameters in classes

Drop the [type T] syntax, and what's associated to make it work.

Motivation: It's an alternative way of doing things for which there seems
to be little need. The implementation was provisional and bitrotted during
the various iterations to introduce higher-kinded types. So in the end the
complxity-cost for language and compiler was not worth the added benefit
that [type T] parameters provide.

Noe that we still accept _named arguments_ [A = T] in expressions; these are useful
for specifying some parameters and letting others be inferred.
