Improve and refactor StgToCmm codegen for DataCons.

We now differentiate three cases of constructor bindings:

1)Bindings which we can "replace" with a reference to
  an existing closure. Reference the replacement closure
  when accessing the binding.
2)Bindings which we can "replace" as above. But we still
  generate a closure which will be referenced by modules
  importing this binding.
3)For any other binding generate a closure. Then reference
  it.

Before this patch 1) did only apply to local bindings and we
didn't do 2) at all.

Move blob handling into StgToCmm

Move handling of big literal strings from CmmToAsm to StgToCmm. It
avoids the use of `sdocWithDynFlags` (cf #10143). We might need to move
this handling even higher in the pipeline in the future (cf #17960):
this patch will make it easier.

Refactor CmmStatics

In !2959 we noticed that there was some redundant code (in GHC.Cmm.Utils
and GHC.Cmm.StgToCmm.Utils) used to deal with `CmmStatics` datatype
(before SRT generation) and `RawCmmStatics` datatype (after SRT
generation).

This patch removes this redundant code by using a single GADT for
(Raw)CmmStatics.

Major improvements to the specialiser

This patch is joint work of Alexis King and Simon PJ.  It does some
significant refactoring of the type-class specialiser.  Main highlights:

* We can specialise functions with types like
     f :: Eq a => a -> Ord b => b => blah
  where the classes aren't all at the front (#16473).  Here we can
  correctly specialise 'f' based on a call like
     f @Int @Bool dEqInt x dOrdBool
  This change really happened in an earlier patch
     commit 2d0cf6252957b8980d89481ecd0b79891da4b14b
     Author: Sandy Maguire <sandy at sandymaguire.me>
     Date:   Thu May 16 12:12:10 2019 -0400
  work that this new patch builds directly on that work, and refactors
  it a bit.

* We can specialise functions with implicit parameters (#17930)
     g :: (?foo :: Bool, Show a) => a -> String
  Previously we could not, but now they behave just like a non-class
  argument as in 'f' above.

* We can specialise under-saturated calls, where some (but not all of
  the dictionary arguments are provided (#17966).  For example, we can
  specialise the above 'f' based on a call
     map (f @Int dEqInt) xs
  even though we don't (and can't) give Ord dictionary.

  This may sound exotic, but #17966 is a program from the wild, and
  showed significant perf loss for functions like f, if you need
  saturation of all dictionaries.

* We fix a buglet in which a floated dictionary had a bogus demand
  (#17810), by using zapIdDemandInfo in the NonRec case of specBind.

* A tiny side benefit: we can drop dead arguments to specialised
  functions; see Note [Drop dead args from specialisations]

* Fixed a bug in deciding what dictionaries are "interesting"; see
  Note [Keep the old dictionaries interesting]

This is all achieved by by building on Sandy Macguire's work in
defining SpecArg, which mkCallUDs uses to describe the arguments of
the call. Main changes:

* Main work is in specHeader, which marched down the [InBndr] from the
  function definition and the [SpecArg] from the call site, together.

* specCalls no longer has an arity check; the entire mechanism now
  handles unders-saturated calls fine.

* mkCallUDs decides on an argument-by-argument basis whether to
  specialise a particular dictionary argument; this is new.
  See mk_spec_arg in mkCallUDs.

It looks as if there are many more lines of code, but I think that
all the extra lines are comments!

Don't override proc CafInfos in ticky builds

Fixes #17947

When we have a ticky label for a proc, IdLabels for the ticky counter
and proc entry share the same Name. This caused overriding proc CafInfos
with the ticky CafInfos (i.e. NoCafRefs) during SRT analysis.

We now ignore the ticky labels when building SRTMaps. This makes sense
because:

- When building the current module they don't need to be in SRTMaps as
  they're initialized as non-CAFFY (see mkRednCountsLabel), so they
  don't take part in the dependency analysis and they're never added to
  SRTs.

  (Reminder: a "dependency" in the SRT analysis is a CAFFY dependency,
  non-CAFFY uses are not considered as dependencies for the algorithm)

- They don't appear in the interfaces as they're not exported, so it
  doesn't matter for cross-module concerns whether they're in the SRTMap
  or not.

See also the new Note [Ticky labels in SRT analysis].

Fix an tricky specialiser loop

Issue #17151 was a very tricky example of a bug in which the
specialiser accidentally constructs a recurive dictionary,
so that everything turns into bottom.

I have fixed variants of this bug at least twice before:
see Note [Avoiding loops].  It was a bit of a struggle
to isolate the problem, greatly aided by the work that
Alexey Kuleshevich did in distilling a test case.

Once I'd understood the problem, it was not difficult to fix,
though it did lead me a bit of refactoring in specImports.

rts: ProfHeap: Fix memory leak when not compiled with profiling

If we're doing heap profiling on an unprofiled executable we keep
allocating new space in initEra via nextEra on each profiler run but we
don't have a corresponding freeEra call.

We do free the last era in endHeapProfiling but previous eras will have
been overwritten by initEra and will never get free()ed.

simplifier: Kill off ufKeenessFactor

We used to have another factor, ufKeenessFactor, which would scale the
discounts before they were subtracted from the size. This was justified
with the following comment:

  -- We multiple the raw discounts (args_discount and result_discount)
  -- ty opt_UnfoldingKeenessFactor because the former have to do with
  --  *size* whereas the discounts imply that there's some extra
  --  *efficiency* to be gained (e.g. beta reductions, case reductions)
  -- by inlining.

However, this is highly suspect since it means that we subtract a
*scaled* size from an absolute size, resulting in crazy (e.g. negative)
scores in some cases (#15304). We consequently killed off
ufKeenessFactor and bumped up the ufUseThreshold to compensate.

Adjustment of unfolding use threshold
=====================================

Since this removes a discount from our inlining heuristic, I revisited our
default choice of -funfolding-use-threshold to minimize the change in
overall inlining behavior. Specifically, I measured runtime allocations
and executable size of nofib and the testsuite performance tests built
using compilers (and core libraries) built with several values of
-funfolding-use-threshold.

This comes as a result of a quantitative comparison of testsuite
performance and code size as a function of ufUseThreshold, comparing
GHC trees using values of 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100. The test set
consisted of nofib and the testsuite performance tests.
A full summary of these measurements are found in the description of
!2608

Comparing executable sizes (relative to the base commit) across all
nofib tests, we see that sizes are similar to the baseline:

            gmean      min      max   median
thresh
50         -6.36%   -7.04%   -4.82%   -6.46%
60         -5.04%   -5.97%   -3.83%   -5.11%
70         -2.90%   -3.84%   -2.31%   -2.92%
80         -0.75%   -2.16%   -0.42%   -0.73%
90         +0.24%   -0.41%   +0.55%   +0.26%
100        +1.36%   +0.80%   +1.64%   +1.37%
baseline   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%

Likewise, looking at runtime allocations we see that 80 gives slightly
better optimisation than the baseline:

            gmean      min      max   median
thresh
50         +0.16%   -0.16%   +4.43%   +0.00%
60         +0.09%   -0.00%   +3.10%   +0.00%
70         +0.04%   -0.09%   +2.29%   +0.00%
80         +0.02%   -1.17%   +2.29%   +0.00%
90         -0.02%   -2.59%   +1.86%   +0.00%
100        +0.00%   -2.59%   +7.51%   -0.00%
baseline   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%   +0.00%

Finally, I had to add a NOINLINE in T4306 to ensure that `upd` is
worker-wrappered as the test expects. This makes me wonder whether the
inlining heuristic is now too liberal as `upd` is quite a large
function. The same measure was taken in T12600.

             Wall clock time compiling Cabal with -O0
thresh       50     60     70     80     90      100    baseline
build-Cabal  93.88  89.58  92.59  90.09  100.26  94.81  89.13

Also, this change happens to avoid the spurious test output in
`plugin-recomp-change` and `plugin-recomp-change-prof` (see #17308).

Make NoExtCon fields strict

This changes every unused TTG extension constructor to be strict in
its field so that the pattern-match coverage checker is smart enough
any such constructors are unreachable in pattern matches. This lets
us remove nearly every use of `noExtCon` in the GHC API. The only
ones we cannot remove are ones underneath uses of `ghcPass`, but that
is only because GHC 8.8's and 8.10's coverage checkers weren't smart
enough to perform this kind of reasoning. GHC HEAD's coverage
checker, on the other hand, _is_ smart enough, so we guard these uses
of `noExtCon` with CPP for now.

Bumps the `haddock` submodule.

Fixes #17992.

Fix CNF handling in compacting GC

Fixes #17937

Previously compacting GC simply ignored CNFs. This is mostly fine as
most (see "What about small compacts?" below) CNF objects don't have
outgoing pointers, and are "large" (allocated in large blocks) and large
objects are not moved or compacted.

However if we do GC *during* sharing-preserving compaction then the CNF
will have a hash table mapping objects that have been moved to the CNF
to their location in the CNF, to be able to preserve sharing.

This case is handled in the copying collector, in `scavenge_compact`,
where we evacuate hash table entries and then rehash the table.

Compacting GC ignored this case.

We now visit CNFs in all generations when threading pointers to the
compacted heap and thread hash table keys. A visited CNF is added to the
list `nfdata_chain`. After compaction is done, we re-visit the CNFs in
that list and rehash the tables.

The overhead is minimal: the list is static in `Compact.c`, and link
field is added to `StgCompactNFData` closure. Programs that don't use
CNFs should not be affected.

To test this CNF tests are now also run in a new way 'compacting_gc',
which just passes `-c` to the RTS, enabling compacting GC for the oldest
generation. Before this patch the result would be:

    Unexpected failures:
       compact_gc.run          compact_gc [bad exit code (139)] (compacting_gc)
       compact_huge_array.run  compact_huge_array [bad exit code (1)] (compacting_gc)

With this patch all tests pass. I can also pass `-c -DS` without any
failures.

What about small compacts? Small CNFs are still not handled by the
compacting GC. However so far I'm unable to write a test that triggers a
runtime panic ("update_fwd: unknown/strange object") by allocating a
small CNF in a compated heap. It's possible that I'm missing something
and it's not possible to have a small CNF.

these tests should not be perf tests, but for now I'll bump the numbers.

Special case `isConstraintKindCon` on `AlgTyCon`

Previously, the `tyConUnique` record selector would unfold into a huge
case expression that would be inlined in all call sites, such as the
`INLINE`-annotated `coreView`, see #18026. `constraintKindTyConKey` only
occurs as the `Unique` of an `AlgTyCon` anyway, so we can make the code
a lot more compact, but have to move it to GHC.Core.TyCon.

DmdAnal: No need to attach a StrictSig to DataCon workers

In GHC.Types.Id.Make we were giving a strictness signature to every data
constructor wrapper Id that we weren't looking at in demand analysis
anyway. We used to use its CPR info, but that has its own CPR signature
now.

`Note [Data-con worker strictness]` then felt very out of place, so I
moved it to GHC.Core.DataCon.

testsuite: Move no_lint to the top level, tweak hie002

- We don't want to benchmark linting so disable lints in hie002 perf
  test

- Move no_lint to the top-level to be able to use it in tests other than
  those in `testsuite/tests/perf/compiler`.

- Filter out -dstg-lint in no_lint.

- hie002 allocation numbers on 32-bit are unstable, so skip it on 32-bit

Testsuite: mark T11531 fragile

The test depends on a link editor allowing undefined symbols in an ELF
shared object. This is the standard but it seems some distributions
patch their link editor. See the report by @hsyl20 in #11531.

Significant refactor of Lint

This refactoring of Lint was triggered by #17923, which is
fixed by this patch.

The main change is this.  Instead of
   lintType :: Type -> LintM LintedKind
we now have
   lintType :: Type -> LintM LintedType

Previously, all of typeKind was effectively duplicate in lintType.
Moreover, since we have an ambient substitution, we still had to
apply the substition here and there, sometimes more than once. It
was all very tricky, in the end, and made my head hurt.

Now, lintType returns a fully linted type, with all substitutions
performed on it.  This is much simpler.

The same thing is needed for Coercions.  Instead of
  lintCoercion :: OutCoercion
               -> LintM (LintedKind, LintedKind,
                         LintedType, LintedType, Role)
we now have
  lintCoercion :: Coercion -> LintM LintedCoercion

Much simpler!  The code is shorter and less bug-prone.

There are a lot of knock on effects.  But life is now better.

Use conLikeUserTyVarBinders to quantify field selector types

This patch:

1. Writes up a specification for how the types of top-level field
   selectors should be determined in a new section of the GHC User's
   Guide, and
2. Makes GHC actually implement that specification by using
   `conLikeUserTyVarBinders` in `mkOneRecordSelector` to preserve the
   order and specificity of type variables written by the user.

Fixes #18023.
