Any literal of a type with an equality operator.
You cannot match on expressions directly, so this is NOT allowed:
var y = 42;
match x with
| y => ...
you have to do this instead:
match x with
| ?v when v == y => ...
but there's a shorthand for that:
match x with
| $(v) => ...
More generally, matching "match" type constructors. Literals are a special
kind of type constructor with no arguments, or, if you prefer with themselves
as the argument of a type specific constructor.
