Fix BCO creation setting caps when -j > -N

* Remove calls to 'setNumCapabilities' in 'createBCOs'
These calls exist to ensure that 'createBCOs' can benefit from
parallelism. But this is not the right place to call
`setNumCapabilities`. Furthermore the logic differs from that in the
driver causing the capability count to be raised and lowered at each TH
call if -j > -N.

* Remove 'BCOOpts'
No longer needed as it was only used to thread the job count down to `createBCOs`

Resolves #23049

configure: Fix FIND_CXX_STD_LIB test on Darwin

Annoyingly, Darwin's <cstddef> includes <version> and APFS is
case-insensitive. Consequently, it will end up #including the
`VERSION` file generated by the `configure` script on the second
and subsequent runs of the `configure` script.

See #23116.

ghci: only keep the GlobalRdrEnv in ModInfo

The datatype GHC.UI.Info.ModInfo used to store a ModuleInfo,
which includes a TypeEnv. This can easily cause space leaks as we
have no way of forcing everything in a type environment.

In GHC, we only use the GlobalRdrEnv, which we can force completely.
So we only store that instead of a fully-fledged ModuleInfo.

Add structured error messages for GHC.Tc.Utils.Backpack

Tracking ticket: #20119

MR: !10127

This converts uses of `mkTcRnUnknownMessage` to newly added constructors
of `TcRnMessage`.
One occurrence, when handing a nested error from the interface loading
machinery, was omitted. It will be handled by a subsequent changeset
that addresses interface errors.

Rename () into Unit, (,,...,,) into Tuple<n> (#21294)

This patch implements a part of GHC Proposal #475.
The key change is in GHC.Tuple.Prim:

  - data () = ()
  - data (a,b) = (a,b)
  - data (a,b,c) = (a,b,c)
  ...
  + data Unit = ()
  + data Tuple2 a b = (a,b)
  + data Tuple3 a b c = (a,b,c)
  ...

And the rest of the patch makes sure that Unit and Tuple<n>
are pretty-printed as () and (,,...,,) in various contexts.

Updates the haddock submodule.

Be more careful about quantification

This MR is driven by #23051. It does several things:

* It is guided by the generalisation plan described in #20686.
  But it is still far from a complete implementation of that plan.

* Add Note [Inferred type with escaping kind] to GHC.Tc.Gen.Bind.
  This explains that we don't (yet, pending #20686) directly
  prevent generalising over escaping kinds.

* In `GHC.Tc.Utils.TcMType.defaultTyVar` we default RuntimeRep
  and Multiplicity variables, beause we don't want to quantify over
  them.  We want to do the same for a Concrete tyvar, but there is
  nothing sensible to default it to (unless it has kind RuntimeRep,
  in which case it'll be caught by an earlier case). So we promote
  instead.

* Pure refactoring in GHC.Tc.Solver:
  * Rename decideMonoTyVars to decidePromotedTyVars, since that's
    what it does.

  * Move the actual promotion of the tyvars-to-promote from
    `defaultTyVarsAndSimplify` to `decidePromotedTyVars`.  This is a
    no-op; just tidies up the code.  E.g then we don't need to
    return the promoted tyvars from `decidePromotedTyVars`.

  * A little refactoring in `defaultTyVarsAndSimplify`, but no
    change in behaviour.

* When making a TauTv unification variable into a ConcreteTv
  (in GHC.Tc.Utils.Concrete.makeTypeConcrete), preserve the occ-name
  of the type variable.  This just improves error messages.

* Kill off dead code: GHC.Tc.Utils.TcMType.newConcreteHole

Refactor the constraint solver pipeline

The big change is to put the entire type-equality solver into
GHC.Tc.Solver.Equality, rather than scattering it over Canonical
and Interact.  Other changes

* EqCt becomes its own data type, a bit like QCInst.  This is
  great because EqualCtList is then just [EqCt]

* New module GHC.Tc.Solver.Dict has come of the class-contraint
  solver.  In due course it will be all.  One step at a time.

This MR is intended to have zero change in behaviour: it is a
pure refactor.  It opens the way to subsequent tidying up, we
believe.

Allow WARNING pragmas to be controlled with custom categories

Closes #17209. This implements GHC Proposal 541, allowing a WARNING
pragma to be annotated with a category like so:

    {-# WARNING in "x-partial" head "This function is undefined on empty lists." #-}

The user can then enable, disable and set the severity of such warnings
using command-line flags `-Wx-partial`, `-Werror=x-partial` and so on.  There
is a new warning group `-Wextended-warnings` containing all these warnings.
Warnings without a category are treated as if the category was `deprecations`,
and are (still) controlled by the flags `-Wdeprecations`
and `-Wwarnings-deprecations`.

Updates Haddock submodule.

of unaligned stores as a temporary mitigation.

Modify ThreadId documentation and comments

For a long time, `GHC.Conc.Sync` has said

```haskell
-- ToDo: data ThreadId = ThreadId (Weak ThreadId#)
-- But since ThreadId# is unlifted, the Weak type must use open
-- type variables.
```

We are now actually capable of using `Weak# ThreadId#`, but the
world has moved on. To support the `Show` and `Ord` instances, we'd
need to store the thread ID number in the `ThreadId`. And it seems
very difficult to continue to support `threadStatus` in that regime,
since it needs to be able to explain how threads died. In addition,
garbage collection of weak references can be quite expensive, and it
would be hard to evaluate the cost over he whole ecosystem. As discussed
in
[this CLC issue](https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/125),
it doesn't seem very likely that we'll actually switch to weak
references here.

rts: Don't rely on EXTERN_INLINE for slop-zeroing logic

Previously we relied on calling EXTERN_INLINE functions defined in
ClosureMacros.h from Cmm to zero slop. However, as far as I can tell,
this is no longer safe to do in C99 as EXTERN_INLINE definitions may be emitted
in each compilation unit.

Fix this by explicitly declaring a new set of non-inline functions in
ZeroSlop.c which can be called from Cmm and marking the ClosureMacros.h
definitions as INLINE_HEADER.

In the future we should try to eliminate EXTERN_INLINE.

rts: Fix capability-count check in zeroSlop

Previously `zeroSlop` examined `RtsFlags` to determine whether the
program was single-threaded. This is wrong; a program may be started

with `setNumCapabilities`. This lead to quite subtle and rare crashes.

Handle records in the renamer

This patch moves the field-based logic for disambiguating record updates
to the renamer. The type-directed logic, scheduled for removal, remains
in the typechecker.

To do this properly (and fix the myriad of bugs surrounding the treatment
of duplicate record fields), we took the following main steps:

  1. Create GREInfo, a renamer-level equivalent to TyThing which stores
     information pertinent to the renamer.
     This allows us to uniformly treat imported and local Names in the
     renamer, as described in Note [GREInfo].

  2. Remove GreName. Instead of a GlobalRdrElt storing GreNames, which
     distinguished between normal names and field names, we now store
     simple Names in GlobalRdrElt, along with the new GREInfo information
     which allows us to recover the FieldLabel for record fields.

  3. Add namespacing for record fields, within the OccNames themselves.
     This allows us to remove the mangling of duplicate field selectors.

     This change ensures we don't print mangled names to the user in
     error messages, and allows us to handle duplicate record fields
     in Template Haskell.

  4. Move record disambiguation to the renamer, and operate on the
     level of data constructors instead, to handle #21443.

     The error message text for ambiguous record updates has also been
     changed to reflect that type-directed disambiguation is on the way
     out.

(3) means that OccEnv is now a bit more complex: we first key on the
textual name, which gives an inner map keyed on NameSpace:

  OccEnv a ~ FastStringEnv (UniqFM NameSpace a)

Note that this change, along with (2), both increase the memory residency
of GlobalRdrEnv = OccEnv [GlobalRdrElt], which causes a few tests to
regress somewhat in compile-time allocation.

Even though (3) simplified a lot of code (in particular the treatment of
field selectors within Template Haskell and in error messages), it came
with one important wrinkle: in the situation of

  -- M.hs-boot
  module M where { data A; foo :: A -> Int }
  -- M.hs
  module M where { data A = MkA { foo :: Int } }

we have that M.hs-boot exports a variable foo, which is supposed to match
with the record field foo that M exports. To solve this issue, we add a
new impedance-matching binding to M

  foo{var} = foo{fld}

This mimics the logic that existed already for impedance-binding DFunIds,
but getting it right was a bit tricky.
See Note [Record field impedance matching] in GHC.Tc.Module.

We also needed to be careful to avoid introducing space leaks in GHCi.
So we dehydrate the GlobalRdrEnv before storing it anywhere, e.g. in
ModIface. This means stubbing out all the GREInfo fields, with the
function forceGlobalRdrEnv.
When we read it back in, we rehydrate with rehydrateGlobalRdrEnv.
This robustly avoids any space leaks caused by retaining old type
environments.

js: split JMacro into JS eDSL and JS syntax

This commit:

Splits JExpr and JStat into two nearly identical DSLs:
- GHC.JS.Syntax is the JMacro based DSL without unsaturation, i.e., a
value cannot be unsaturated, or, a value of this DSL is a witness that a
value of GHC.JS.Unsat has been saturated
- GHC.JS.Unsat is the JMacro DSL from GHCJS with Unsaturation.

Then all binary and outputable instances are changed to use
GHC.JS.Syntax.

This moves us closer to closing out #22736 and #22352. See #22736 for
roadmap.

testsuite: asyncify the testsuite driver

This patch refactors the testsuite driver, gets rid of multi-threading
logic for running test cases concurrently, and uses asyncio &
coroutines instead. This is not yak shaving for its own sake; the
previous multi-threading logic is prone to livelock/deadlock
conditions for some reason, even if the total number of threads is
bounded to a thread pool's capacity.

The asyncify change is an internal implementation detail of the
testsuite driver and does not impact most GHC maintainers out there.
The patch does not touch the .T files, test cases can be
added/modified the exact same way as before.

Fixes around unsafeCoerce#

1. `unsafeCoerce#` was documented in `GHC.Prim`. But since the overhaul
in 74ad75e87317, `unsafeCoerce#` is no longer defined there.
I've combined the documentation in `GHC.Prim` with the `Unsafe.Coerce` module.

2. The documentation of `unsafeCoerce#` stated that you should not
cast a function to an algebraic type, even if you later cast it back
before applying it. But ghci was doing that type of cast, as can be seen
with 'ghci -ddump-ds' and typing 'x = not'. I've changed it to use Any
following the documentation.

Relax assertion in varToRecFieldOcc

When using Template Haskell, it is possible to re-parent a field OccName
belonging to one data constructor to another data constructor. The
lsp-types package did this in order to "extend" a data constructor
with additional fields.

This ran into an assertion in 'varToRecFieldOcc'. This assertion
can simply be relaxed, as the resulting splices are perfectly sound.

Make INLINE pragmas for pattern synonyms work with TH

Previously, the code for converting `INLINE <name>` pragmas from TH splices
used `vNameN`, which assumed that `<name>` must live in the variable namespace.
Pattern synonyms, on the other hand, live in the constructor namespace. I've
fixed the issue by switching to `vcNameN` instead, which works for both the
variable and constructor namespaces.

Allow generation of TTH syntax with TH

In other words allow generation of typed splices and brackets with
Untyped Template Haskell.

That is useful in cases where a library is build with TTH in mind,
but we still want to generate some auxiliary declarations,
where TTH cannot help us, but untyped TH can.
Such example is e.g. `staged-sop` which works with TTH,
but we would like to derive `Generic` declarations with TH.

An alternative approach is to use `unsafeCodeCoerce`, but then the
derived `Generic` instances would be type-checked only at use sites,
i.e. much later. Also `-ddump-splices` output is quite ugly:
user-written instances would use TTH brackets, not `unsafeCodeCoerce`.

This commit doesn't allow generating of untyped template splices
and brackets with untyped TH, as I don't know why one would want to do
that (instead of merging the splices, e.g.)

Stop if type constructors have kind errors

Otherwise we get knock-on errors, such as #23252.

This makes GHC fail a bit sooner, and I have not attempted to add
recovery code, to add a fake TyCon place of the erroneous one,
in an attempt to get more type errors in one pass.  We could
do that (perhaps) if there was a call for it.

Major refactor in the handling of equality constraints

This MR substantially refactors the way in which the constraint
solver deals with equality constraints.  The big thing is:

* Intead of a pipeline in which we /first/ canonicalise and /then/
  interact (the latter including performing unification) the two steps
  are more closely integreated into one.  That avoids the current
  rather indirect communication between the two steps.

The proximate cause for this refactoring is fixing #22194, which involve
solving   [W] alpha[2] ~ Maybe (F beta[4])
by doing this:
          alpha[2] := Maybe delta[2]
          [W] delta[2] ~ F beta[4]
That is, we don't promote beta[4]!  This is very like introducing a cycle
breaker, and was very awkward to do before, but now it is all nice.
See GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify Note [Promotion and level-checking] and
Note [Family applications in canonical constraints].

The big change is this:

* Several canonicalisation checks (occurs-check, cycle-breaking,
  checking for concreteness) are combined into one new function:
     GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.checkTyEqRhs

  This function is controlled by `TyEqFlags`, which says what to do
  for foralls, type families etc.

* `canEqCanLHSFinish` now sees if unification is possible, and if so,
  actually does it: see `canEqCanLHSFinish_try_unification`.

There are loads of smaller changes:

* The on-the-fly unifier `GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.unifyType` has a
  cheap-and-cheerful version of `checkTyEqRhs`, called
  `simpleUnifyCheck`.  If `simpleUnifyCheck` succeeds, it can unify,
  otherwise it defers by emitting a constraint. This is simpler than
  before.

* I simplified the swapping code in `GHC.Tc.Solver.Equality.canEqCanLHS`.
  Especially the nasty stuff involving `swap_for_occurs` and
  `canEqTyVarFunEq`.  Much nicer now.  See
      Note [Orienting TyVarLHS/TyFamLHS]
      Note [Orienting TyFamLHS/TyFamLHS]

* Added `cteSkolemOccurs`, `cteConcrete`, and `cteCoercionHole` to the
  problems that can be discovered by `checkTyEqRhs`.

* I fixed #23199 `pickQuantifiablePreds`, which actually allows GHC to
  to accept both cases in #22194 rather than rejecting both.

Yet smaller:

* Added a `synIsConcrete` flag to `SynonymTyCon` (alongside `synIsFamFree`)
  to reduce the need for synonym expansion when checking concreteness.
  Use it in `isConcreteType`.

* Renamed `isConcrete` to `isConcreteType`

* Defined `GHC.Core.TyCo.FVs.isInjectiveInType` as a more efficient
  way to find if a particular type variable is used injectively than
  finding all the injective variables.  It is called in
  `GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.definitely_poly`, which in turn is used quite a
  lot.

* Moved `rewriterView` to `GHC.Core.Type`, so we can use it from the
  constraint solver.

Fixes #22194, #23199

Improve partial signatures

This MR fixes #23223. The changes are in two places:

* GHC.Tc.Bind.checkMonomorphismRestriction
  See the new `Note [When the MR applies]`
  We now no longer stupidly attempt to apply the MR when the user
  specifies a context, e.g.   f :: Eq a => _ -> _

* GHC.Tc.Solver.decideQuantification
  See rewritten `Note [Constraints in partial type signatures]`

Fixing this bug apparently breaks three tests:

* partial-sigs/should_compile/T11192
* partial-sigs/should_fail/Defaulting1MROff
* partial-sigs/should_fail/T11122

However they are all symptoms of #23232, so I'm marking them as
expect_broken(23232).

I feel happy about this MR. Nice.

Transfer DFunId_ness onto specialised bindings

Whether a binding is a DFunId or not has consequences for the `-fdicts-strict`
flag, essentially if we are doing demand analysis for a DFunId then `-fdicts-strict` does
not apply because the constraint solver can create recursive groups of dictionaries.

In #22549 this was fixed for the "normal" case, see
Note [Do not strictify the argument dictionaries of a dfun].
However the loop still existed if the DFunId was being specialised.

The problem was that the specialiser would specialise a DFunId and
turn it into a VanillaId and so the demand analyser didn't know to
apply special treatment to the binding anymore and the whole recursive
group was optimised to bottom.

The solution is to transfer over the DFunId-ness of the binding in the specialiser so
that the demand analyser knows not to apply the `-fstrict-dicts`.

Fixes #22549

Account for special GHC.Prim import in warnUnusedPackages

The GHC.Prim import is treated quite specially primarily because there

This logic hasn't made it's way to `-Wunused-packages` so if you
imported GHC.Prim then the warning would complain you didn't use

validDerivPred: Reject exotic constraints in IrredPreds

This brings the `IrredPred` case in sync with the treatment of `ClassPred`s as
described in `Note [Valid 'deriving' predicate]` in `GHC.Tc.Validity`. Namely,
we should reject `IrredPred`s that are inferred from `deriving` clauses whose
arguments contain other type constructors, as described in `(VD2) Reject exotic
constraints` of that Note.  This has the nice property that `deriving` clauses
whose inferred instance context mention `TypeError` will now emit the type
error in the resulting error message, which better matches existing intuitions
about how `TypeError` should work.

While I was in town, I noticed that much of `Note [Valid 'deriving' predicate]`
was duplicated in a separate `Note [Exotic derived instance contexts]` in
`GHC.Tc.Deriv.Infer`. I decided to fold the latter Note into the former so that
there is a single authority on describing the conditions under which an
inferred `deriving` constraint can be considered valid.

This changes the behavior of `deriving` in a way that existing code might
break, so I have made a mention of this in the GHC User's Guide. It seems very,
very unlikely that much code is relying on this strange behavior, however, and
even if there is, there is a clear, backwards-compatible migration path using
`StandaloneDeriving`.

Fixes #22696.

Convert interface file loading errors into proper diagnostics

This patch converts all the errors to do with loading interface files
into proper structured diagnostics.

  file so we embed the IfaceMessage into the DriverMessage.
* TcRnMessage: Most the time we are loading interface files during
  typechecking, so we embed the IfaceMessage

This patch also removes the TcRnInterfaceLookupError constructor which
is superceded by the IfaceMessage, which is now structured compared to
just storing an SDoc before.

Don't panic in ltPatersonSize

The function GHC.Tc.Utils.TcType.ltPatersonSize would panic when it
encountered a type family on the RHS, as usually these are not allowed
(type families are not allowed on the RHS of class instances or of
quantified constraints). However, it is possible to still encounter
type families on the RHS after doing a bit of constraint solving, as
seen in test case T23171. This could trigger the panic in the call to
ltPatersonSize in GHC.Tc.Solver.Canonical.mk_strict_superclasses, which
is involved in avoiding loopy superclass constraints.

This patch simply changes ltPatersonSize to return "I don't know, because
there's a type family involved" in these cases.

Implement -jsem: parallelism controlled by semaphores

See https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/540/ for a
complete description for the motivation for this feature.

The `-jsem` option allows a build tool to pass a semaphore to GHC which
GHC can use in order to control how much parallelism it requests.

GHC itself acts as a client in the GHC jobserver protocol.

```
GHC Jobserver Protocol
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This proposal introduces the GHC Jobserver Protocol. This protocol allows
a server to dynamically invoke many instances of a client process,
while restricting all of those instances to use no more than <n> capabilities.
This is achieved by coordination over a system semaphore (either a POSIX
semaphore [6]_  in the case of Linux and Darwin, or a Win32 semaphore [7]_
in the case of Windows platforms).

There are two kinds of participants in the GHC Jobserver protocol:

- The *jobserver* creates a system semaphore with a certain number of
  available tokens.

  Each time the jobserver wants to spawn a new jobclient subprocess, it **must**
  first acquire a single token from the semaphore, before spawning
  the subprocess. This token **must** be released once the subprocess terminates.

  Once work is finished, the jobserver **must** destroy the semaphore it created.

- A *jobclient* is a subprocess spawned by the jobserver or another jobclient.

  Each jobclient starts with one available token (its *implicit token*,
  which was acquired by the parent which spawned it), and can request more
  tokens through the Jobserver Protocol by waiting on the semaphore.

  Each time a jobclient wants to spawn a new jobclient subprocess, it **must**
  pass on a single token to the child jobclient. This token can either be the
  jobclient's implicit token, or another token which the jobclient acquired
  from the semaphore.

  Each jobclient **must** release exactly as many tokens as it has acquired from
  the semaphore (this does not include the implicit tokens).
```

Build tools such as cabal act as jobservers in the protocol and are
responsibile for correctly creating, cleaning up and managing the
semaphore.

Adds a new submodule (semaphore-compat) for managing and interacting
with semaphores in a cross-platform way.

DmdAnal: Unleash demand signatures of free RULE and unfolding binders (#23208)

In #23208 we observed that the demand signature of a binder occuring in a RULE
wasn't unleashed, leading to a transitively used binder being discarded as
absent. The solution was to use the same code path that we already use for
handling exported bindings.

See the changes to `Note [Absence analysis for stable unfoldings and RULES]`
for more details.

I took the chance to factor out the old notion of a `PlusDmdArg` (a pair of a
`VarEnv Demand` and a `Divergence`) into `DmdEnv`, which fits nicely into our
existing framework. As a result, I had to touch quite a few places in the code.

This refactoring exposed a few small bugs around correct handling of bottoming
demand environments. As a result, some strictness signatures now mention uniques
that weren't there before which caused test output changes to T13143, T19969 and
T22112. But these tests compared whole -ddump-simpl listings which is a very
fragile thing to begin with. I changed what exactly they test for based on the
symptoms in the corresponding issues.

There is a single regression in T18894 because we are more conservative around
stable unfoldings now. Unfortunately it is not easily fixed; let's wait until
there is a concrete motivation before invest more time.

Fixes #23208.

hadrian: Flavour: Change args -> extraArgs

Previously in a flavour definition you could override all the flags
which were passed to GHC. This causes issues when needed to compute a
package hash because we need to know what these extra arguments are
going to be before computing the hash. The solution is to modify flavour
so that the arguments you pass here are just extra ones rather than all
the arguments that you need to compile something.

This makes things work more like how cabal.project files work when you
give extra arguments to a package and also means that flavour
transformers correctly affect the hash.

Hardwire a better unit-id for ghc

Previously, the unit-id of ghc-the-library was fixed as `ghc`.
This was done primarily because the compiler must know the unit-id of
some packages (including ghc) a-priori to define wired-in names.

However, as seen in #20742, a reinstallable `ghc` whose unit-id is fixed
to `ghc` might result in subtle bugs when different ghc's interact.

A good example of this is having GHC_A load a plugin compiled by GHC_B,
where GHC_A and GHC_B are linked to ghc-libraries that are ABI
incompatible. Without a distinction between the unit-id of the ghc library
GHC_A is linked against and the ghc library the plugin it is loading was
compiled against, we can't check compatibility.

This patch gives a slightly better unit-id to ghc (ghc-version) by
(1) Not setting -this-unit-id to ghc, but rather to the new unit-id (modulo stage0)
(2) Adding a definition to `GHC.Settings.Config` whose value is the new unit-id.
    (2.1) `GHC.Settings.Config` is generated by Hadrian
    (2.2) and also by cabal through `compiler/Setup.hs`
This unit-id definition is imported by `GHC.Unit.Types` and used to
set the wired-in unit-id of "ghc", which was previously fixed to "ghc"

The commits following this one will improve the unit-id with a
cabal-style package hash and check compatibility when loading plugins.

Note that we also ensure that ghc's unit key matches unit id both when
hadrian or cabal builds ghc, and in this way we no longer need to add
`ghc` to the WiringMap.

Add hashes to unit-ids created by hadrian

This commit adds support for computing an inputs hash for packages
compiled by hadrian. The result is that ABI incompatible packages should
be given different hashes and therefore be distinct in a cabal store.

Hashing is enabled by the `--flag`, and is off by default as the hash
contains a hash of the source files. We enable it when we produce
release builds so that the artifacts we distribute have the right unit
ids.

JS: fix bounds checking (Issue 23123)

* For ByteArray-based bounds-checking, the JavaScript backend must use the
`len` field, instead of the inbuild JavaScript `length` field.

* Range-based operations must also check both the start and end of the range
for bounds

* All indicies are valid for ranges of size zero, since they are essentially no-ops

* For cases of ByteArray accesses (e.g. read as Int), the end index is
(i * sizeof(type) + sizeof(type) - 1), while the previous implementation
uses (i + sizeof(type) - 1). In the Int32 example, this is (i * 4 + 3)

* IndexByteArrayOp_Word8As* primitives use byte array indicies (unlike
the previous point), but now check both start and end indicies

* Byte array copies now check if the arrays are the same by identity and
then if the ranges overlap.

Fix remaining issues with bound checking (#23123)

While fixing these I've also changed the way we store addresses into
ByteArray#. Addr# are composed of two parts: a JavaScript array and an
offset (32-bit number).

Suppose we want to store an Addr# in a ByteArray# foo at offset i.
Before this patch, we were storing both fields as a tuple in the "arr"
array field:

  foo.arr[i] = [addr_arr, addr_offset];

Now we only store the array part in the "arr" field and the offset
directly in the array:

  foo.dv.setInt32(i, addr_offset):
  foo.arr[i] = addr_arr;

It avoids wasting space for the tuple.

Fix type variable substitution in gen_Newtype_fam_insts

Previously, `gen_Newtype_fam_insts` was substituting the type variable binders
of a type family instance using `substTyVars`, which failed to take type
variable dependencies into account. There is similar code in
`GHC.Tc.TyCl.Class.tcATDefault` that _does_ perform this substitution properly,
so this patch:

1. Factors out this code into a top-level `substATBndrs` function, and
2. Uses `substATBndrs` in `gen_Newtype_fam_insts`.

Rework plugin initialisation points

In general this patch pushes plugin initialisation points to earlier in
the pipeline. As plugins can modify the `HscEnv`, it's imperative that
the plugins are initialised as soon as possible and used thereafter.

For example, there are some new tests which modify hsc_logger and other
hooks which failed to fire before (and now do)

One consequence of this change is that the error for specifying the
usage of a HPT plugin from the command line has changed, because it's
now attempted to be loaded at initialisation rather than causing a
cyclic module import.

Closes #21279

This MR changes some simple optimizations and is a first step in re-architecting

- removes simple peep hole optimizations from `GHC.StgToJS.Printer` and removes that module
- adds module `GHC.JS.Optimizer`
- defines the same peep hole opts that were removed only now they are `Syntax -> Syntax` transformations rather than `Syntax -> JS code` optimizations
- hooks the optimizer into code gen
- adds FuncStat and ForStat constructors to the backend.

Add fused multiply-add instructions

This patch adds eight new primops that fuse a multiplication and an
addition or subtraction:

  - `{fmadd,fmsub,fnmadd,fnmsub}{Float,Double}#`

fmadd x y z is x * y + z, computed with a single rounding step.

This patch implements code generation for these primops in the following
backends:

  - X86, AArch64 and PowerPC NCG,
  - LLVM
  - C

WASM uses the C implementation. The primops are unsupported in the
JavaScript backend.

The following constant folding rules are also provided:

  - compute a * b + c when a, b, c are all literals,
  - x * y + 0 ==> x * y,
  - ±1 * y + z ==> z ± y and x * ±1 + z ==> z ± x.

NB: the constant folding rules incorrectly handle signed zero.
This is a known limitation with GHC's floating-point constant folding
rules (#21227), which we hope to resolve in the future.

rts: Refine memory retention behaviour to account for pinned/compacted objects

When using the copying collector there is still a lot of data which
isn't copied (such as pinned, compacted, large objects etc). The logic
to decide how much memory to retain didn't take into account that these
wouldn't be copied. Therefore we pessimistically retained 2* the amount
of memory for these blocks even though they wouldn't be copied by the
collector.

The solution is to split up the heap into two parts, the parts which
will be copied and the parts which won't be copied. Then the appropiate
factor is applied to each part individually (2 * for copying and 1.2 *
for not copying).

The T23221 test demonstrates this improvement with a program which first
allocates many unpinned ByteArray# followed by many pinned ByteArray#
and observes the difference in the ultimate memory baseline between the
two.

There are some charts on #23221.
