Type inference for data family newtype instances

This patch addresses #23408, a tricky case with data family
newtype instances.  Consider

  type family TF a where TF Char = Bool
  data family DF a
  newtype instance DF Bool = MkDF Int

and [W] Int ~R# DF (TF a), with a Given (a ~# Char).   We must fully
rewrite the Wanted so the tpye family can fire; that wasn't happening.

codeGen: Give proper LFInfo to datacon wrappers

As noted in `Note [Conveying CAF-info and LFInfo between modules]`,
when importing a binding from another module we must ensure that it gets
the appropriate `LambdaFormInfo` if it is in WHNF to ensure that
references to it are tagged correctly.

However, the implementation responsible for doing this,
`GHC.StgToCmm.Closure.mkLFImported`, only dealt with datacon workers and
not wrappers. This lead to the crash of this program in #23146:

    module B where

    type NP :: [UnliftedType] -> UnliftedType
    data NP xs where
      UNil :: NP '[]

    module A where
    import B

    fieldsSam :: NP xs -> NP xs -> Bool
    fieldsSam UNil UNil = True

    x = fieldsSam UNil UNil

Due to its GADT nature, `UNil` produces a trivial wrapper

    $WUNil :: NP '[]
    $WUNil = UNil @'[] @~(<co:1>)

which is referenced in the RHS of `A.x`. Due to the above-mentioned bug
in `mkLFImported`, the references to `$WUNil` passed to `fieldsSam` were
not tagged. This is problematic as `fieldsSam` expected its arguments to
be tagged as they are unlifted.

The fix is straightforward: extend the logic in `mkLFImported` to cover
(nullary) datacon wrappers as well as workers. This is safe because we
know that the wrapper of a nullary datacon will be in WHNF, even if it
includes equalities evidence (since such equalities are not runtime
relevant).

Thanks to @MangoIV for the great ticket and @alt-romes for his
minimization and help debugging.

Fixes #23146.

codeGen: Fix LFInfo of imported datacon wrappers

As noted in #23231 and in the previous commit, we were failing to give a
an LFInfo of LFCon to a nullary datacon wrapper from another module,
failing to properly tag pointers which ultimately led to the
segmentation fault in #23146.

On top of the previous commit which now considers wrappers where we
previously only considered workers, we change the order of the guards so
that we check for the arity of the binding before we check whether it is
a constructor. This allows us to
(1) Correctly assign `LFReEntrant` to imported wrappers whose worker was
nullary, which we previously would fail to do
(2) Remove the `isNullaryRepDataCon` predicate:
    (a) which was previously wrong, since it considered wrappers whose
    workers had zero-width arguments to be non-nullary and would fail to
    give `LFCon` to them
    (b) is now unnecessary, since arity == 0 guarantees
        - that the worker takes no arguments at all
        - and the wrapper takes no arguments and its RHS must be an
          application of the worker to zero-width-args only.
        - we lint these two items with an assertion that the datacon
          `hasNoNonZeroWidthArgs`

We also update `isTagged` to use the new logic in determining the
LFInfos of imported Ids.

The creation of LFInfos for imported Ids and this detail are explained
in Note [The LFInfo of Imported Ids].

Note that before the patch to those issues we would already consider these
nullary wrappers to have `LFCon` lambda form info; but failed to re-construct
that information in `mkLFImported`

Closes #23231, #23146

(I've additionally batched some fixes to documentation I found while
investigating this issue)

Make LFInfos for DataCons on construction

As a result of the discussion in !10165, we decided to amend the
previous commit which fixed the logic of `mkLFImported` with regard to
datacon workers and wrappers.

Instead of having the logic for the LFInfo of datacons be in
`mkLFImported`, we now construct an LFInfo for all data constructors on
GHC.Types.Id.Make and store it in the `lfInfo` field.

See the new Note [LFInfo of DataCon workers and wrappers] and
ammendments to Note [The LFInfo of Imported Ids]

Rename mkLFImported to importedIdLFInfo

The `mkLFImported` sounded too much like a constructor of sorts, when
really it got the `LFInfo` of an imported Id from its `lf_info` field
when this existed, and otherwise returned a conservative estimate of
that imported Id's LFInfo. This in contrast to functions such as
`mkLFReEntrant` which really are about constructing an `LFInfo`.

Add the SolverStage monad

This refactoring makes a substantial improvement in the
structure of the type-checker's constraint solver: #23070.

Specifically:

* Introduced the SolverStage monad.   See GHC.Tc.Solver.Monad
  Note [The SolverStage monad]

* Make each solver pipeline (equalities, dictionaries, irreds etc)
  deal with updating the inert set, as a separate SolverStage.  There
  is sometimes special stuff to do, and it means that each full
  pipeline can have type SolverStage Void, indicating that they never
  return anything.

* Made GHC.Tc.Solver.Equality.zonkEqTypes into a SolverStage.  Much nicer.

* Combined the remnants of GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical and
  GHC.Tc.Solver.Interact into a new module GHC.Tc.Solver.Solve.
  (Interact and Canonical are removed.)

* Gave the same treatment to dictionary and irred constraints
  as I have already done for equality constraints:
    * New types (akin to EqCt): IrredCt and DictCt
    * Ct is now just a simple sum type
          data Ct
            = CDictCan      DictCt
            | CIrredCan     IrredCt
            | CEqCan        EqCt
            | CQuantCan     QCInst
            | CNonCanonical CtEvidence
    * inert_dicts can now have the better type DictMap DictCt, instead of
      DictMap Ct; and similarly inert_irreds.

* Significantly simplified the treatment of implicit parameters.
  Previously we had a number of special cases
    * interactGivenIP, an entire function
    * special case in maybeKickOut
    * special case in findDict, when looking up dictionaries
  But actually it's simpler than that. When adding a new Given, implicit
  parameter constraint to the InertSet, we just need to kick out any
  existing inert constraints that mention that implicit parameter.

  The main work is done in GHC.Tc.Solver.InertSet.delIPDict, along with
  its auxiliary GHC.Core.Predicate.mentionsIP.

  See Note [Shadowing of implicit parameters] in GHC.Tc.Solver.Dict.

* Add a new fast-path in GHC.Tc.Errors.Hole.tcCheckHoleFit.
  See Note [Fast path for tcCheckHoleFit].  This is a big win in some cases:
  test hard_hole_fits gets nearly 40% faster (at compile time).

* Add a new fast-path for solving /boxed/ equality constraints
  (t1 ~ t2).  See Note [Solving equality classes] in GHC.Tc.Solver.Dict.
  This makes a big difference too: test T17836 compiles 40% faster.

* Implement the PermissivePlan of #23413, which concerns what happens with
  insoluble Givens.   Our previous treatment was wildly inconsistent as that
  ticket pointed out.

  A part of this, I simplified GHC.Tc.Validity.checkAmbiguity: now we simply
  don't run the ambiguity check at all if -XAllowAmbiguousTypes is on.

Smaller points:

* In `GHC.Tc.Errors.misMatchOrCND` instead of having a special case for
  insoluble /occurs/ checks, broaden in to all insouluble constraints.
  Just generally better. See Note [Insoluble mis-match] in that module.

As noted above, compile time perf gets better.  Here are the changes
over 0.5% on Fedora.  (The figures are slightly larger on Windows for
some reason.)

Avoid an assertion failure in abstractFloats

The function GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Utils.abstractFloats
was carelessly calling lookupIdSubst_maybe on a CoVar;
but a precondition of the latter is being given an Id.

In fact it's harmless to call it on a CoVar, but still, the
precondition on lookupIdSubst_maybe makes sense, so I added
a test for CoVars.

This avoids a crash in a DEBUG compiler, but otherwise has
no effect. Fixes #23426.

linear lint: Add missing processing of DEFAULT

In this correct program

f :: a %1 -> a
f x = case x of x { _DEFAULT -> x }

after checking the alternative we weren't popping the case binder 'x'
from the usage environment, which meant that the lambda-bound 'x'
was counted twice: in the scrutinee and (incorrectly) in the alternative.
In fact, we weren't checking the usage of 'x' at all.
Now the code for handling _DEFAULT is similar to the one handling
data constructors.

Remove outdated "Don't check hs-boot type family instances too early" note

This note was introduced in 25b70a29f623 which delayed performing some
consistency checks for type families. However, the change was reverted
later in 6998772043a7f0b0360116eb5ffcbaa5630b21fb but the note was not
removed.

I found it confusing when reading to code to try and work out what
special behaviour there was for hs-boot files (when in-fact there isn't
any).

rts: Define ticky macro stubs

These macros have long been undefined which has meant we were missing
reporting these allocations in ticky profiles.

The most critical missing definition was TICK_ALLOC_HEAP_NOCTR which was
missing all the RTS calls to allocate, this leads to a the overall
ALLOC_RTS_tot number to be severaly underreported.

Of particular interest though is the ALLOC_STACK_ctr and ALLOC_STACK_tot
counters which are useful to tracking stack allocations.

The threaded RTS allows you to use ticky profiling but only for the

the RTS are disabled. Updating the counters is also racy using the

increments)

Propagate long-distance info in generated code

When desugaring generated pattern matches, we skip pattern match checks.
However, this ended up also discarding long-distance information, which
might be needed for user-written sub-expressions.

Example:

```haskell
okay (GADT di) cd =
  let sr_field :: ()
      sr_field = case getFooBar di of { Foo -> () }
  in case cd of { SomeRec _ -> SomeRec sr_field }
```

With sr_field a generated FunBind, we still want to propagate the outer
long-distance information from the GADT pattern match into the checks
for the user-written RHS of sr_field.

error messages: Don't display ghci specific hints for missing packages

Tickets like #22884 suggest that it is confusing that GHC used on the
command line can suggest options which only work in GHCi.

This ticket uses the error message infrastructure to override certain
error messages which displayed GHCi specific information so that this
information is only showed when using GHCi.

The main annoyance is that we mostly want to display errors in the same
way as before, but with some additional information. This means that the
error rendering code has to be exported from the Iface/Errors/Ppr.hs
module.

I am unsure about whether the approach taken here is the best or most
maintainable solution.

Change GHC.Driver.Session import to .DynFlags

Also move targetPlatform selector

Plenty of GHC needs just DynFlags.
Even more can be made to use .DynFlags if more selectors is migrated.

EPA: Better fix for #22919

The original fix for #22919 simply removed the ability to match up
prior comments with the first declaration in the file.

Restore it, but add a check that the comment is on a single line, by
ensuring that it comes immediately prior to the next thing (comment or
start of declaration), and that the token preceding it is not on the
same line.

closes #22919

testsuite: Pass -kb16k -kc128k for performance tests

Setting a larger stack chunk size gives a greater protection
from stack thrashing (where the repeated overflow/underflow allocates a lot of
stack chunks which sigificantly impact allocations). This
stabilises some tests against differences cause by more things being
pushed onto the stack.

The performance tests are generally testing work done by the compiler,
using allocation as a proxy, so removing/stabilising the allocations due
to the stack gives us more stable tests which are also more sensitive
to actual changes in compiler performance.

The tests which increase are ones where we compile a lot of modules, and
for each module we spawn a thread to compile the module in. Therefore
increasing these numbers has a multiplying effect on these tests because
there are many more stacks which we can increase in size.

The most significant improvements though are cases such as T8095 which
reduce significantly in allocations (30%). This isn't a performance
improvement really but just helps stabilise the test against this
threshold set by the defaults.

Move via-C flags into GHC

Restructure the zonker

This commit splits up the zonker into a few separate components, described
in Note [The structure of the zonker] in `GHC.Tc.Zonk.Type`.

1. `GHC.Tc.Zonk.Monad` introduces a pared-down `TcM` monad, `ZonkM`,
     which has enough information for zonking types.
     This allows us to refactor `ErrCtxt` to use `ZonkM` instead of `TcM`,
     which guarantees we don't throw an error while reporting an error.

2. `GHC.Tc.Zonk.Env` is the new home of `ZonkEnv`, and also defines
    two zonking monad transformers, `ZonkT` and `ZonkBndrT`.
    `ZonkT` is a reader monad transformer over `ZonkEnv`.
    `ZonkBndrT m` is the codensity monad over `ZonkT m`.

     `ZonkBndrT` is used for computations that accumulate binders
     in the `ZonkEnv`.

3. `GHC.Tc.Zonk.TcType` contains the code for zonking types, for use
    in the typechecker. It uses the `ZonkM` monad.

4. `GHC.Tc.Zonk.Type` contains the code for final zonking to `Type`,
    which has been refactored to use `ZonkTcM = ZonkT TcM` and
    `ZonkBndrTcM = ZonkBndrT TcM`.

Allocations slightly decrease on the whole due to using
continuation-passing style instead of manual state passing of ZonkEnv
in the final zonking to Type.

Restructure IPE buffer layout

Reference ticket #21766

This commit restructures IPE buffer list entries to not contain
references to their corresponding info tables. IPE buffer list nodes now
point to two lists of equal length, one holding the list of info table
pointers and one holding the corresponding entries for each info table.
This will allow the entry data to be compressed without losing the
references to the info tables.

Fix IPE data decompression buffer allocation

Capacity of buffers allocated for decompressed IPE data was
incorrect due to a misuse of the `ZSTD_findFrameCompressedSize`
function. Fix by always storing decompressed size of IPE data in IPE

the size of the compressed data.

Implement Or Patterns (Proposal 0522)

This commit introduces a language extension, `OrPatterns`, as described in proposal 0522.

It extends the syntax by the production
`pat -> (one of pat1, ..., patk)`.
The or-pattern `pat` succeeds iff one of the patterns `pat1`, ..., `patk` succeed, in this order.

Currently, or-patterns cannot bind variables. They are still of great use as they discourage the use of wildcard patterns in favour of writing out all "default" cases explicitly:

```
isIrrefutableHsPat pat = case pat of
  ...
  (one of WildPat{}, VarPat{}, LazyPat{})
      = True
  (one of PArrPat{}, ConPatIn{}, LitPat{}, NPat{}, NPlusKPat{}, ListPat{})
      = False
```

This makes code safer where data types are extended now and then - just like GHC's `Pat` in the example when adding the new `OrPat` constructor. This would be catched by `-fwarn-incomplete-patterns`, but not when a wildcard pattern was used.

- Update submodule haddock.
