There were a few issues with the hackage links:

1. We were using the package id rather than the package name for the
   package links. This is fixed by now allowing the template to mention
   %pkg% or %pkgid% and substituing both appropiatly.
2. The `--haddock-base-url` flag is renamed to `--haddock-for-hackage`
   as the new base link works on a local or remote hackage server.
3. The "src" path including too much stuff, so cross-package source
   links were broken as the template was getting double expanded.

Fixes #24086

These were changes are all triggered by #24471.

1. Make GHC.Core.Opt.SetLevels.lvlMFE behave better when there are
   many free variables.  See Note [Large free-variable sets].

2. Make GHC.Core.Opt.Arity.floatIn a bit lazier in its Cost argument.
   This benefits the common case where the ArityType turns out to
   be nullary. See Note [Care with nested expressions]

3. Make GHC.CoreToStg.Prep.cpeArg behave for deeply-nested
   expressions.  See Note [Eta expansion of arguments in CorePrep]
   wrinkle (EA2).

Compile times go down by up to 4.5%, and much more in artificial
cases. (Geo mean of compiler/perf changes is -0.4%.)

* Main change: make the error message generated by mkFunTysMsg more

* Refactor: define a new type synonym VisArity and use it instead of
  Arity in a few places.

It might be the case that there other places in the compiler that should

tried to find them all, focusing only on the error message reported in

class, allowing dynamically-typed user-defined annotations to be
attached to exceptions.

Here we introduce the `Backtraces` type and associated machinery for
attaching these via `ExceptionContext`. These has a few compile-time
regressions (`T15703` and `T9872d`) due to the additional dependencies
in the exception machinery.

As well, there is a surprisingly large regression in the
`size_hello_artifact` test. This appears to be due to various `Integer` and
`Read` bits now being reachable at link-time. I believe it should be
possible to avoid this but I have accepted the change for now to get the
feature merged.

This fixes a regression in retainer set profiling introduced by
b0293f78cb6acf2540389e22bdda420d0ab874da. Prior to that commit
the heap traversal word would be initialized by `SET_HDR` using
`LDV_RECORD_CREATE`. However, the commit added a `doingLDVProfiling`
check in `LDV_RECORD_CREATE`, meaning that this initialization no longer
happened.

Given that this initialization was awkwardly indirectly anyways, I have
fixed this by explicitly initializating the heap traversal word to
`NULL` in `SET_PROF_HDR`. This is equivalent to the previous behavior,
but much more direct.

Fixes #24513.
