Re-engineer the binder-swap transformation

The binder-swap transformation is implemented by the occurrence
analyser -- see Note [Binder swap] in OccurAnal. However it had
a very nasty corner in it, for the case where the case scrutinee
was a GlobalId.  This led to trouble and hacks, and ultimately
to #16296.

This patch re-engineers how the occurrence analyser implements
the binder-swap, by actually carrying out a substitution rather
than by adding a let-binding.  It's all described in
Note [The binder-swap substitution].

I did a few other things along the way

* Fix a bug in StgCse, which could allow a loop breaker to be CSE'd
  away.  See Note [Care with loop breakers] in StgCse.  I think it can
  only show up if occurrence analyser sets up bad loop breakers, but
  still.

* Better commenting in SimplUtils.prepareAlts

* A little refactoring in CoreUnfold; nothing significant
  e.g. rename CoreUnfold.mkTopUnfolding to mkFinalUnfolding

* Renamed CoreSyn.isFragileUnfolding to hasCoreUnfolding

* Move mkRuleInfo to CoreFVs

We observed respectively 4.6% and 5.9% allocation decreases for the following
tests:

Preserve precise exceptions in strictness analysis

Fix #13380 and #17676 by

1. Changing `raiseIO#` to have `topDiv` instead of `botDiv`
2. Give it special treatment in `Simplifier.Util.mkArgInfo`, treating it
   as if it still had `botDiv`, to recover dead code elimination.

This is the first commit of the plan outlined in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/2525#note_260886.

Session: Memoize stderrSupportsAnsiColors

Not only is this a reasonable efficiency measure but it avoids making
reentrant calls into ncurses, which is not thread-safe. See #17922.

Make Hadrian build with Cabal-3.2

GHC 8.10 ships with `Cabal-3.2.0.0`, so it would be convenient to
make Hadrian supporting building against 3.2.* instead of having to
rebuild the entirety of `Cabal-3.0.0.0`. There is one API change in
`Cabal-3.2.*` that affects Hadrian: the `synopsis` and `description`
functions now return `ShortText` instead of `String`. Since Hadrian
manipulates these `String`s in various places, I found that the
simplest fix was to use CPP to convert `ShortText` to `String`s
where appropriate.

Fix two ASSERT buglets in reifyDataCon

Two `ASSERT`s in `reifyDataCon` were always using `arg_tys`, but
`arg_tys` is not meaningful for GADT constructors. In fact, it's
worse than non-meaningful, since using `arg_tys` when reifying a
GADT constructor can lead to failed `ASSERT`ions, as #17305
demonstrates.

This patch applies the simplest possible fix to the immediate
problem. The `ASSERT`s now use `r_arg_tys` instead of `arg_tys`, as
the former makes sure to give something meaningful for GADT
constructors. This makes the panic go away at the very least. There
is still an underlying issue with the way the internals of
`reifyDataCon` work, as described in
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/17305#note_227023, but we
leave that as future work, since fixing the underlying issue is
much trickier (see
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/issues/17305#note_227087).
