This is mainly a syntactic trick/sugar, but it's been pretty annoying
to me for a while that we can't simply pattern-match/destructure
single-variant constructors directly from the args list. A classic
example is when writing property tests:
```ak
test foo(params via both(bytearray(), int())) {
let (bytes, ix) = params
...
}
```
Now can be replaced simply with:
```
test foo((bytes, ix) via both(bytearray(), int())) {
...
}
```
If feels natural, especially coming from the JavaScript, Haskell or
Rust worlds and is mostly convenient. Behind the scene, the compiler
does nothing more than re-writing the AST as the first form, with
pre-generated arg names. Then, we fully rely on the existing
type-checking capabilities and thus, works in a seamless way as if we
were just pattern matching inline.
