This library is used by Redex, which wants a `syntax'-like template
language, but for datum values instead of syntax objects. Using
`datum-case' and `datum' generates much less code. Redex uses
only a small part of the general functionality, so adding
`syntax/datum' could be overkill. It's implemented by generalizing
the `syntax-case' and `syntax' pattern matching and template
constructing code, though; it's not a lot of extra code, and it's
easiest to generalize completely. We may find other uses for
datum templates, too.

Macros and other tools that need syntax privilege used
`(current-code-inspector)' at the module top-level to try to
capture the right code inspector at load time. It's more
consistent to instead use the enclosing module's declaration-time
inspector, and `var-ref->mod-decl-insp' provides that. The
new function works only on references to anonymous variables,
which limits access to the inspector.
The real function name is longer, of course.
