Uses responseFile syntax.
The issue arises when GHC is installed on windows into a location that
has a space, for example the user name is 'Fake User'.
The $topdir will also contain a space, consequentially.
When we resolve the top dir in the string `-I$topdir/mingw/include`,
then `words` will turn this single argument into `-I/C/Users/Fake` and
`User/.../mingw/include` which trips up the flag argument parser of
various tools such as gcc or clang.
We avoid this by escaping the $topdir before replacing it in
`initSettngs`.
Additionally, we allow to escape spaces and quotation marks for
arguments in `settings` file.
Add regression test case to count the number of options after variable
expansion and argument escaping took place.
Additionally, we check that escaped spaces and double quotation marks are
correctly parsed.

GCC 14 on aarch64 rejects the C code written by GHC with this kind of
error:
error: assignment to ‘ffi_arg’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} from ‘HsPtr’ {aka ‘void *’} makes integer from pointer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]

Add the correct cast.

A user may configure `LDFLAGS` but not `LD`. When choosing a linker, we
will prefer `ldd`, then `ld.gold`, then `ld.bfd` -- however, we have to
check for a working linker. If either of these fail, we try the next in
line.
However, we were not considering the `$LDFLAGS` when checking if these
linkers worked. So we would pick a linker that does not support the
current $LDFLAGS and fail further down the line when we used that linker
with those flags.
Fixes #24565, where `LDFLAGS=-Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs` is not
supported by `ld.gold` but that was being picked still.

In nonmovingTidyWeaks we want to check if the key of a weak pointer
lives in the non-moving heap. We do this by checking the flags of the
block the key lives in. But we need to be careful with values that live
outside the Haskell heap, since they will lack a block descriptor and
looking for one may lead to a segfault. In this case we should just
accept that it isn't on the non-moving heap.
