 Support stage 1 Template Haskell (non-quasi) quotes, fixes #10382.

 Summary:
 This commit adds stage 1 support for Template Haskell
 quoting, e.g. [| ... expr ... |], which is useful
 for authors of quasiquoter libraries that do not actually
 need splices.  The TemplateHaskell extension now does not
 unconditionally fail; it only fails if the renamer encounters
 a splice that it can't run.

 In order to make sure the referenced data structures
 are consistent, template-haskell is now a boot library.

 In the following patches, there are:

     - A few extra safety checks which should be enabled
       in stage1
     - Separation of the th/ testsuite into quotes/ which
       can be run on stage1

 Note for reviewer: big diff changes are simply code
 being moved out of an ifdef; there was no other substantive
 change to that code.
