<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Move Unit related fields from DynFlags to HscEnv
The unit database cache, the home unit and the unit state were stored in
DynFlags while they ought to be stored in the compiler session state
(HscEnv). This patch fixes this.
It introduces a new UnitEnv type that should be used in the future to
handle separate unit environments (especially host vs target units).

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Optimize dumping of consecutive whitespace.
The naive way of putting out n characters of indent would be something
like `hPutStr hdl (replicate n ' ')`. However this is quite inefficient
as we allocate an absurd number of strings consisting of simply spaces
as we don't cache them.
To improve on this we now track if we can simply write ascii spaces via
hPutBuf instead. This is the case when running with -ddump-to-file where
we force the encoding to be UTF8.
This avoids both the cost of going through encoding as well as avoiding
allocation churn from all the white space. Instead we simply use hPutBuf
on a preallocated unlifted string.
When dumping stg like this:
> nofib/spectral/simple/Main.hs -fforce-recomp -ddump-stg-final -ddump-to-file -c +RTS -s
Allocations went from 1,778 MB to 1,702MB. About a 4% reduction of
allocation! I did not measure the difference in runtime but expect it
to be similar.
Bumps the haddock submodule since the interface of GHC's Pretty
slightly changed.

<pre class="commit-message" style="white-space: pre-wrap; margin: 0;">Optimise nullary type constructor usage
During the compilation of programs GHC very frequently deals with
the `Type` type, which is a synonym of `TYPE 'LiftedRep`. This patch
teaches GHC to avoid expanding the `Type` synonym (and other nullary
type synonyms) during type comparisons, saving a good amount of work.
This optimisation is described in `Note [Comparing nullary type
synonyms]`.
To maximize the impact of this optimisation, we introduce a few
special-cases to reduce `TYPE 'LiftedRep` to `Type`. See
`Note [Prefer Type over TYPE 'LiftedPtrRep]`.
Closes #17958.
