In subsequent MRs (#23409) we want to remove the TcLclEnv argument from
a CtLoc. This MR prepares us for that by removing the one place where
the entire TcLclEnv is used, by using it more precisely to just set the
contexts source location.
Fixes #23390

POSIX filepaths may not contain the NUL octet but previously we did not
reject such paths. This could be exploited by untrusted input to cause
discrepancies between various `FilePath` queries and the opened
filename. For instance, `readFile "hello.so\x00.txt"` would open the
file `"hello.so"` yet `takeFileExtension` would return `".txt"`.
The same argument applies to Windows FilePaths
Fixes #13660.

Addresses #23398. The demand analyser usually does not unpack class
dictionaries: see Note [Do not unbox class dictionaries] in
GHC.Core.Opt.DmdAnal.
This patch makes an exception for tuple dictionaries and equality
dictionaries, for reasons explained in wrinkles (DNB1) and (DNB2) of
the above Note.
Compile times fall by 0.1% for some reason (max 0.7% on T18698b).

This patch addresses #23408, a tricky case with data family
newtype instances. Consider
type family TF a where TF Char = Bool
data family DF a
newtype instance DF Bool = MkDF Int
and [W] Int ~R# DF (TF a), with a Given (a ~# Char). We must fully
rewrite the Wanted so the tpye family can fire; that wasn't happening.
