[issue32892] Remove specific constant AST types in favor of ast.Constant

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com> added the comment:

As pure aliases, those wouldn't necessarily be that useful, as aside from NameConstant, the field names are different (Num.n, Str.s, Bytes.s).

I do wonder whether it might be worth keeping "NameConstant", though, and use that for Ellipsis as well, so the singletons all use NameConstant, while regular constants use Constant.
