The main payload of this change is to hadrian.
* Default settings will produced dynamic profiled objects
* `-fexternal-interpreter` is turned on in some situations when there is
an incompatibility between host GHC and the way attempting to be
built.
* Very few changes actually needed to GHC
There are also necessary changes to the bootstrap plans to work with the
vendored Cabal dependency. These changes should ideally be reverted by
the next GHC release.
In hadrian support is added for building profiled dynamic libraries
(nothing too exciting to see there)
Updates hadrian to use a vendored Cabal submodule, it is important that
we replace this usage with a released version of Cabal library before
the 9.12 release.

Implements the FSQRT machop using native assembly rather than a C call.
Implements MO_BSwap by producing assembly to do the byte swapping
instead of producing a foreign call a C function.
In `tar`, the hot loop for `deserialise` got almost 4x faster by
avoiding the foreign call which caused spilling live variables to the
stack -- this means the loop did 4x more memory read/writing than
necessary in that particular case!

This commit adds support for 128 bit wide SIMD vectors and vector
operations to GHC's X86 native code generator.
Main changes:
- Introduction of vector formats (`GHC.CmmToAsm.Format`)
- Introduction of 128-bit virtual register (`GHC.Platform.Reg`),
and removal of unused Float virtual register.
- Refactor of `GHC.Platform.Reg.Class.RegClass`: it now only contains
two classes, `RcInteger` (for general purpose registers) and `RcFloatOrVector`
(for registers that can be used for scalar floating point values as well
as vectors).
- Modify `GHC.CmmToAsm.X86.Instr.regUsageOfInstr` to keep track
of which format each register is used at, so that the register
allocator can know if it needs to spill the entire vector register
or just the lower 64 bits.
- Modify spill/load/reg-2-reg code to account for vector registers
(`GHC.CmmToAsm.X86.Instr.{mkSpillInstr, mkLoadInstr, mkRegRegMoveInstr, takeRegRegMoveInstr}`).
- Modify the register allocator code (`GHC.CmmToAsm.Reg.*`) to propagate
the format we are storing in any given register, for instance changing
`Reg` to `RegFormat` or `GlobalReg` to `GlobalRegUse`.
- Add logic to lower vector `MachOp`s to X86 assembly
(see `GHC.CmmToAsm.X86.CodeGen`)
- Minor cleanups to genprimopcode, to remove the llvm_only attribute
which is no longer applicable.
Tests for this feature are provided in the "testsuite/tests/simd" directory.
Fixes #7741
Keeping track of register formats adds a small memory overhead to the
register allocator (in particular, regUsageOfInstr now allocates more
to keep track of the `Format` each register is used at). This explains
the following metric increases.

This commit updates genapply to use xmm, ymm and zmm registers, for
stg_ap_v16/stg_ap_v32/stg_ap_v64, respectively.
It also updates the Cmm lexer and parser to produce Cmm vectors rather
than 128/256/512 bit wide scalars for V16/V32/V64, removing bits128,
bits256 and bits512 in favour of vectors.
The Cmm Lint check is weakened for vectors, as (in practice, e.g. on X86)
it is okay to use a single vector register to hold multiple different
types of data, and we don't know just from seeing e.g. "XMM1" how to
interpret the 128 bits of data within.
Fixes #25062

This adds vector shuffle primops, such as
```
shuffleFloatX4# :: FloatX4# -> FloatX4# -> (# Int#, Int#, Int#, Int# #) -> FloatX4#
```
which shuffle the components of the input two vectors into the output vector.
NB: the indices must be compile time literals, to match the X86 SHUFPD
instruction immediate and the LLVM shufflevector instruction.
These are handled in the X86 NCG and the LLVM backend.
Tested in simd009.

This adds proper MachOps for broadcast instructions, allowing us to
produce better code for broadcasting a value than simply packing that
value (doing many vector insertions in a row).
These are lowered in the X86 NCG and LLVM backends. In the LLVM backend,
it uses the previously introduced shuffle instructions.

This commit fixes the handling of signed zero in floating-point vector
negation.
A slight hack was introduced to work around the fact that Cmm doesn't
currently have a notion of signed floating point literals
(see get_float_broadcast_value_reg). This can be removed once CmmFloat
can express the value -0.0.
The simd006 test has been updated to use a stricter notion of equality
of floating-point values, which ensure the validity of this change.
