Primitives are treated specially in the type checker, so that when fully applied, no function is generated. With uncurried application, primitives are wrapped with eta expansion before being used, because the encoding via `Js.Internal.opaqueFullApply` disables the special treatment by the type checker. This PR treats uncurried application of primitives like curried application, to help `Lam` compilation produce better code instead of leaving eta-expanded functions in the output.
