sys_core_fold: Remove uncovered clauses matching #c_map{}
sys_core_fold:eval_element/3 attempts to evaluate calls to element/2 at compile time or to warn when the call will obviously fail. For example: element(1, [a]) will obviously fail and eval_element/3 will produce a warning. eval_element/3 uses the helper functions is_not_integer/1 and is_not_tuple/1 to test whether the arguments are known to be incorrect. The clauses that attempt to match #c_map{} in those helper function will never be executed, because #c_map{} will never occur directly in an argument for a function call. For example, code such as: element(1, #{a=>Val}) will be translated to: let <NewVar> = #{a=>Val} in element(1, NewVar) since maps are not considered safe (some map operations may cause an exception at run time).
