The optimisation done of Namegen.visibly_occur_id did not preserve
the previous behavior when pr_constr/constr_extern/detype were
called on a term with free rel variables. We backtrack on it to
go back to the 8.2 behavior.
Seized this opportunity to clarify the meaning of the at_top flag
in constrextern.ml and printer.ml and to rename it into
goal_concl_style. The badly-named at_top flag was introduced in
Coq 6.3 in 1999 to mean that when printing variables bound in the
goal, names had to avoid the names of the variables of the goal
context, so as to keep naming stable when using "intro"; in
r4458, printing improved by not avoiding names that were short
names of global definitions, e.g. "S", or "O" (except when the
at_top flag was on for compatibility reasons).
Other printing strategies could be possible in the
non-goal-concl-style mode. For instance, all bound variables
could be made distinct in a given expression, even if no clash
occur, therefore following so-called Barendregt's
convention. This could be done by setting "avoid"
to "ids_of_rel_context (rel_context env)" in extern_constr and
extern_type (and then, Namegen.visibly_occur_id could be
re-simplified again!).
