Improve aggressive specialisation
This patch fixes #21286, by not unboxing dictionaries in
worker/wrapper (ever). The main payload is tiny:
* In `GHC.Core.Opt.DmdAnal.finaliseArgBoxities`, do not unbox
dictionaries in `get_dmd`. See Note [Do not unbox class dictionaries]
in that module
* I also found that imported wrappers were being fruitlessly
specialised, so I fixed that too, in canSpecImport.
See Note [Specialising imported functions] point (2).
In doing due diligence in the testsuite I fixed a number of
other things:
* Improve Note [Specialising unfoldings] in GHC.Core.Unfold.Make,
and Note [Inline specialisations] in GHC.Core.Opt.Specialise,
and remove duplication between the two. The new Note describes
how we specialise functions with an INLINABLE pragma.
And simplify the defn of `spec_unf` in `GHC.Core.Opt.Specialise.specCalls`.
* Improve Note [Worker/wrapper for INLINABLE functions] in
GHC.Core.Opt.WorkWrap.
And (critially) make an actual change which is to propagate the
user-written pragma from the original function to the wrapper; see
`mkStrWrapperInlinePrag`.
* Write new Note [Specialising imported functions] in
GHC.Core.Opt.Specialise
All this has a big effect on some compile times. This is
compiler/perf, showing only changes over 1%:

I spent quite some time investigating dom-lt, but it's pretty
complicated. See my note on !7847. Conclusion: it's just a delicate
inlining interaction, and we have plenty of those.

Refactor UnfoldingSource and IfaceUnfolding
I finally got tired of the way that IfaceUnfolding reflected
a previous structure of unfoldings, not the current one. This
MR refactors UnfoldingSource and IfaceUnfolding to be simpler
and more consistent.
It's largely just a refactor, but in UnfoldingSource (which moves
to GHC.Types.Basic, since it is now used in IfaceSyn too), I
distinguish between /user-specified/ and /system-generated/ stable
unfoldings.
data UnfoldingSource
= VanillaSrc
| StableUserSrc -- From a user-specified pragma
| StableSystemSrc -- From a system-generated unfolding
| CompulsorySrc
This has a minor effect in CSE (see the use of isisStableUserUnfolding
in GHC.Core.Opt.CSE), which I tripped over when working on
specialisation, but it seems like a Good Thing to know anyway.

INLINE/INLINEABLE pragmas in Foreign.Marshal.Array
Foreign.Marshal.Array contains many small functions, all of which are
overloaded, and which are critical for performance. Yet none of them
had pragmas, so it was a fluke whether or not they got inlined.
This patch makes them all either INLINE (small ones) or
INLINEABLE and hence specialisable (larger ones).
See Note [Specialising array operations] in that module.
