Care with implicit-parameter superclasses

Two bugs, #18627 and #18649, had the same cause: we were not
account for the fact that a constaint tuple might hide an implicit
parameter.

The solution is not hard: look for implicit parameters in
superclasses.  See Note [Local implicit parameters] in
GHC.Core.Predicate.

Then we use this new function in two places

* The "short-cut solver" in GHC.Tc.Solver.Interact.shortCutSolver
  which simply didn't handle implicit parameters properly at all.
  This fixes #18627

* The specialiser, which should not specialise on implicit parameters
  This fixes #18649

There are some lingering worries (see Note [Local implicit
parameters]) but things are much better.

Introduce and use DerivClauseTys (#18662)

This switches `deriv_clause_tys` so that instead of using a list of
`LHsSigType`s to represent the types in a `deriving` clause, it now
uses a sum type. `DctSingle` represents a `deriving` clause with no
enclosing parentheses, while `DctMulti` represents a clause with
enclosing parentheses. This makes pretty-printing easier and avoids
confusion between `HsParTy` and the enclosing parentheses in
`deriving` clauses, which are different semantically.

Fixes #18662.

Include -f{write,validate}-ide-info in the User's Guide flag reference

Previously, these were omitted from the flag reference due to a
layout oversight in `docs/users_guide/flags.{rst,py}`.

Fixes #18426.

rts: Fix erroneous usage of vsnprintf

As pointed out in #18685, this should be snprintf not vsnprintf. This
appears to be due to a cut-and-paste error.

Fixes #18658.

Rename ghci flag into internal-interpreter

"ghci" as a flag name was confusing because it really enables the
internal-interpreter. Even the ghci library had a "ghci" flag...

Make ghc-boot reexport modules from ghc-boot-th

Packages don't have to import both ghc-boot and ghc-boot-th. It makes
the dependency graph easier to understand and to refactor.

Implement Quick Look impredicativity

This patch implements Quick Look impredicativity (#18126), sticking
very closely to the design in
    A quick look at impredicativity, Serrano et al, ICFP 2020

The main change is that a big chunk of GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr has been
extracted to two new modules
    GHC.Tc.Gen.App
    GHC.Tc.Gen.Head
which deal with typechecking n-ary applications, and the head of
such applications, respectively.  Both contain a good deal of
documentation.

Three other loosely-related changes are in this patch:

* I implemented (partly by accident) points (2,3)) of the accepted GHC
  proposal "Clean up printing of foralls", namely
  https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/
        master/proposals/0179-printing-foralls.rst
  (see #16320).

  In particular, see Note [TcRnExprMode] in GHC.Tc.Module
  - :type instantiates /inferred/, but not /specified/, quantifiers
  - :type +d instantiates /all/ quantifiers
  - :type +v is killed off

  That completes the implementation of the proposal,
  since point (1) was done in
    commit df08468113ab46832b7ac0a7311b608d1b418c4d
    Author: Krzysztof Gogolewski <krzysztof.gogolewski at tweag.io>
    Date:   Mon Feb 3 21:17:11 2020 +0100
    Always display inferred variables using braces

* HsRecFld (which the renamer introduces for record field selectors),
  is now preserved by the typechecker, rather than being rewritten
  back to HsVar.  This is more uniform, and turned out to be more
  convenient in the new scheme of things.

* The GHCi debugger uses a non-standard unification that allows the
  unification variables to unify with polytypes.  We used to hack
  this by using ImpredicativeTypes, but that doesn't work anymore
  so I introduces RuntimeUnkTv.  See Note [RuntimeUnkTv] in
  GHC.Runtime.Heap.Inspect

WARNING: this patch won't validate on its own.  It was too
hard to fully disentangle it from the following patch, on
type errors and kind generalisation.

Changes to tests

* Fixes #9730 (test added)

* Fixes #7026 (test added)

* Fixes most of #8808, except function `g2'` which uses a
  section (which doesn't play with QL yet -- see #18126)
  Test added

* Fixes #1330. NB Church1.hs subsumes Church2.hs, which is now deleted

* Fixes #17332 (test added)

* Fixes #4295

* This patch makes typecheck/should_run/T7861 fail.
  But that turns out to be a pre-existing bug: #18467.
  So I have just made T7861 into expect_broken(18467)

Improve kind generalisation, error messages

This patch does two things:

* It refactors GHC.Tc.Errors a bit.  In debugging Quick Look I was
  forced to look in detail at error messages, and ended up doing a bit
  of refactoring, esp in mkTyVarEqErr'.  It's still quite a mess, but
  a bit better, I think.

* It makes a significant improvement to the kind checking of type and
  class declarations. Specifically, we now ensure that if kind
  checking fails with an unsolved constraint, all the skolems are in
  scope.  That wasn't the case before, which led to some obscure error
  messages; and occasional failures with "no skolem info" (eg #16245).

Both of these, and the main Quick Look patch itself, affect a /lot/ of
error messages, as you can see from the number of files changed.  I've
checked them all; I think they are as good or better than before.

Smaller things

* I documented the various instances of VarBndr better.
  See Note [The VarBndr tyep and its uses] in GHC.Types.Var

* Renamed GHC.Tc.Solver.simpl_top to simplifyTopWanteds

* A bit of refactoring in bindExplicitTKTele, to avoid the
  footwork with Either.  Simpler now.

* Move promoteTyVar from GHC.Tc.Solver to GHC.Tc.Utils.TcMType

Fixes #16245 (comment 211369), memorialised as
  typecheck/polykinds/T16245a
Also fixes the three bugs in #18640
