The current syntax for functions in `app` and `pred` patterns
allows a shorthand (F ARGS) where the object being matched is
added as an extra last argument. This is nice for things like
(pred (< 5)) but sometimes the object needs to be at
another position.
Until now you had to use (pred (lambda (x) (memq x my-list)))
or (pred (pcase--flip memq my-list)) in those cases.
So, introduce a new shorthand where `_` can be used to indicate
where the object should be passed: (pred (memq _ my-list))
