(* [oi_strip_comb oinfo t] returns SOME(f, args, pattern) if the the term t
   matches the pattern orig in the overload info's print-map, and this pattern
   decomposes t into operator f applied to arguments args.

   Further, this is the best such match, according to the heuristics
   that overloading uses.
