Misc cleanup

- Remove unused uniques and hs-boot declarations
- Fix types of seq and unsafeCoerce#
- Remove FastString/String roundtrip in JS
- Use TTG to enforce totality
- Remove enumeration in Heap/Inspect; the 'otherwise' clause
  serves the primitive types well.

EPA: Do not collect comments from end of file

In Parser.y semis1 production triggers for the virtual semi at the end
of the file. This is detected by it being zero length.

In this case, do not extend the span being used to gather comments, so
any final comments are allocated at the module level instead.

Revert "configure: Drop uses of AC_PROG_CC_C99"

This reverts commit 7c6de18dd3151ead954c210336728e8686c91de6.

Centos7 using a very old version of the toolchain (autotools-2.69) where
the behaviour of these macros has not yet changed. I am reverting this
without haste as it is blocking the 9.6 branch.

Fixes #22704

Refactor the treatment of loopy superclass dicts

This patch completely re-engineers how we deal with loopy superclass
dictionaries in instance declarations. It fixes #20666.

The highlights are

* Recognise that the loopy-superclass business should use precisely
  the Paterson conditions.  This is much much nicer.  See
  Note [Recursive superclasses] in GHC.Tc.TyCl.Instance

* With that in mind, define "Paterson-smaller" in
  Note [Paterson conditions] in GHC.Tc.Validity, and the new
  data type `PatersonSize` in GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType, along with
  functions to compute and compare PatsonSizes

* Use the new PatersonSize stuff when solving superclass constraints
  See Note [Solving superclass constraints] in GHC.Tc.TyCl.Instance

* In GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad.lookupInInerts, add a missing call to
  prohibitedSuperClassSolve.  This was the original cause of #20666.

* Treat (TypeError "stuff") as having PatersonSize zero. See
  Note [Paterson size for type family applications] in GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType.

* Some refactoring way in which redundant constraints are reported; we
  don't want to complain about the extra, apparently-redundant
  constraints that we must add to an instance decl because of the
  loopy-superclass thing.  I moved some work from GHC.Tc.Errors to
  GHC.Tc.Solver.

* Add a new section to the user manual to describe the loopy
  superclass issue and what rules it follows.
