* Remove calls to 'setNumCapabilities' in 'createBCOs'
These calls exist to ensure that 'createBCOs' can benefit from
parallelism. But this is not the right place to call
`setNumCapabilities`. Furthermore the logic differs from that in the
driver causing the capability count to be raised and lowered at each TH
call if -j > -N.

* Remove 'BCOOpts'
No longer needed as it was only used to thread the job count down to `createBCOs`

Resolves #23049

Annoyingly, Darwin's <cstddef> includes <version> and APFS is
case-insensitive. Consequently, it will end up #including the
`VERSION` file generated by the `configure` script on the second
and subsequent runs of the `configure` script.

The datatype GHC.UI.Info.ModInfo used to store a ModuleInfo,
which includes a TypeEnv. This can easily cause space leaks as we
have no way of forcing everything in a type environment.

In GHC, we only use the GlobalRdrEnv, which we can force completely.
So we only store that instead of a fully-fledged ModuleInfo.

Tracking ticket: #20119

MR: !10127

This converts uses of `mkTcRnUnknownMessage` to newly added constructors
of `TcRnMessage`.
One occurrence, when handing a nested error from the interface loading
machinery, was omitted. It will be handled by a subsequent changeset
that addresses interface errors.

This MR is driven by #23051. It does several things:

* It is guided by the generalisation plan described in #20686.
  But it is still far from a complete implementation of that plan.

* Add Note [Inferred type with escaping kind] to GHC.Tc.Gen.Bind.
  This explains that we don't (yet, pending #20686) directly
  prevent generalising over escaping kinds.

* In `GHC.Tc.Utils.TcMType.defaultTyVar` we default RuntimeRep
  and Multiplicity variables, beause we don't want to quantify over
  them.  We want to do the same for a Concrete tyvar, but there is
  nothing sensible to default it to (unless it has kind RuntimeRep,
  in which case it'll be caught by an earlier case). So we promote
  instead.

* Pure refactoring in GHC.Tc.Solver:
  * Rename decideMonoTyVars to decidePromotedTyVars, since that's
    what it does.

  * Move the actual promotion of the tyvars-to-promote from
    `defaultTyVarsAndSimplify` to `decidePromotedTyVars`.  This is a
    no-op; just tidies up the code.  E.g then we don't need to
    return the promoted tyvars from `decidePromotedTyVars`.

  * A little refactoring in `defaultTyVarsAndSimplify`, but no
    change in behaviour.

* When making a TauTv unification variable into a ConcreteTv
  (in GHC.Tc.Utils.Concrete.makeTypeConcrete), preserve the occ-name
  of the type variable.  This just improves error messages.

* Kill off dead code: GHC.Tc.Utils.TcMType.newConcreteHole
