Variables in contracts can either be true type variables or simply names for
types thet are defined in the 'when' clauses. Consider the following example:
-spec foo(X, Options) -> {ok, X} | error when Options :: [{atom(), boolean()}].
Here X is a true variable whereas Options is a name for a type that is defined
in the when clause.
'when' clauses may further use names on the right side. These were not treated
properly by Dialyzer and could be generalized to the term() type. This patch
fixes this issue.
A further issue is the treatment of true type variables, but this is left for
another patch.

Dialyzer was not reporting unused functions with 0 arity. This was not
a real issue, until we found out that there could be cases where this
could lead to false warnings. This was the case in "no_local_return.erl".

Whenever a variable that could hold one of two or more possible closures was
used in a particular application, the application was assumed to fail if ONE of
the closures would fail in this application. This has been corrected to infer
failing application if ALL possible closures would fail in the particular
application.

Dialyzer emits warnings like the following "The specification for _
states that the function might also return _ but the inferred return
is _", which are actually underspecifications and not wrong type
specifications. This patch makes sure that they are filed under the
appropriate category.

No warnings are emitted for funs that are non-returning when the
function that generates them has a contract that specifies that
it will return such a non-returning fun.
The actual bug, reported by Tuncer Ayaz and simplified by Maria
Christakis is included in Dialyzer's tests.

This patch makes Dialyzer aware of Erlang's total ordering of terms,
enabling discrepancy detection in cases where e.g. integer() < tuple()
is treated as a comparison that might also return false (when it is
certain to always return true).
