+In a call (f @a x True), that we want to specialise, what variables should
we quantify over. Clearly over 'a' and 'x', but what about any type variables
free in x's type? In fact we don't need to worry about them because (f @a)
can only be a well-typed application if its type is compatible with x, so any
-varaibles free in x's type must be free in (f @a), and hence either be gathered
+variables free in x's type must be free in (f @a), and hence either be gathered
via 'a' itself, or be in scope at f's defn. Hence we just take
(exprsFreeVars pats).

eg x::T b with type T b = Int
So we apply expandTypeSynonyms to the bound Ids.
