Invariant: Tpat_value pattern should not carry pat_attributes or pat_extra metadata coming from user syntax, which must be on the inner pattern node -- to facilitate searching for a certain value pattern constructor with a specific attributed.

To enforce this restriction, we made the argument of the Tpat_value constructor a private synonym of pattern, requiring you to use the as_computation_pattern function below instead of using the Tpat_value constructor directly.
