I'm not sure I like this fallback. The problem is that if we support it at first order, we need to have the same logic at higher orders and it just becomes complicated.

If we don't have this, then we do not need this PR at all, since writing the rule for kwcall currently does work.
This particular logic is the code of this PR.
It's what makes it possible to write frules that have keywords args that match to functions with keyword args.

I don't understand what the problem with this at higher order is?

I suspect for performance, you probably want to define the non-kwargs version separately, so that higher-order AD doesn't have to AD through all the kwargs dispatch logic, like we do in ChainRules.

# frules are linear in partials, so zero maps to zero, no need to evaluate the frule
# If all partials are immutable AbstractZero subtyoes we know we don't have to worry about a mutating frule either
r = f(primal_args...)
r = f(primal_args...; kwargs...)
return r, zero_tangent(r)
