Inclusion of functors with restricted signature is now forbidden (fix #3746)
The previous behavior was to include the interface of such a functor, possibly leading to the creation of unexpected axioms, see bug report #3746. In the case of non-functor module with restricted signature, we could simply refer to the original objects (strengthening), but for a functor, the inner objects have no existence yet. As said in the new error message, a simple workaround is hence to first instantiate the functor, then include the local instance: Module LocalInstance := Funct(Args). Include LocalInstance. By the way, the mod_type_alg field is now filled more systematically, cf new comments in declarations.mli. This way, we could use it to know whether a module had been given a restricted signature (via ":"). Earlier, some mod_type_alg were None in situations not handled by the extraction (MEapply of module type). Some code refactoring on the fly.
