Fix genapply for cross-compilation by nuking fragile CPP logic

This commit fixes incorrectly built genapply when cross compiling
(#24347) by nuking all fragile CPP logic in it from the orbit. All
target-specific info are now read from DerivedConstants.h at runtime,
see added note for details. Also removes a legacy Makefile and adds
haskell language server support for genapply.

rts: enable wasm32 register mapping

The wasm backend didn't properly make use of all Cmm global registers
due to #24347. Now that it is fixed, this patch re-enables full
register mapping for wasm32, and we can now generate smaller & faster
wasm modules that doesn't always spill arguments onto the stack. Fixes #22460 #24152.

Fix FMA instruction on LLVM

We were emitting the wrong instructions for fused multiply-add
operations on LLVM:

  - the instruction name is "llvm.fma.f32" or "llvm.fma.f64", not "fmadd"
  - LLVM does not support other instructions such as "fmsub"; instead
    we implement these by flipping signs of some arguments
  - the instruction is an LLVM intrinsic, which requires handling it
    like a normal function call instead of a machine instruction

Fixes #24223

compiler: remove unused GHC.Linker module

The GHC.Linker module is empty and unused, other than as a hack for
the make build system. We can remove it now that make is long gone;
the note is moved to GHC.Linker.Loader instead.

Fix irrelevant dodgy-foreign-imports warning on import f-pointers by value

A test *сс018* is attached (not sure about the naming convention though).
Note that without the fix, the test fails with the *dodgy-foreign-imports*
warning passed to stderr. The warning disappears after the fix.

GHC shouldn't warn on imports of natural function pointers from C by value
(which is feasible with CApiFFI), such as

```haskell
foreign import capi "cc018.h value f" f :: FunPtr (Int -> IO ())
```

where

```c
void (*f)(int);
```

See a related real-world use-case
[here](https://gitlab.com/daniel-casanueva/pcre-light/-/merge_requests/17).
There, GHC warns on import of C function pointer `pcre_free`.

cmm: Introduce MO_RelaxedRead

In hand-written Cmm it can sometimes be necessary to atomically load
from memory deep within an expression (e.g. see the `CHECK_GC` macro).
This MachOp provides a convenient way to do so without breaking the
expression into multiple statements.

compiler: move generic cmm optimization logic in NCG to a standalone module

This commit moves GHC.CmmToAsm.cmmToCmm to a standalone module,
GHC.Cmm.GenericOpt. The main motivation is enabling this logic to be
run in the wasm backend NCG code, which is defined in other modules
that's imported by GHC.CmmToAsm, causing a cyclic dependency issue.

compiler: enable generic cmm optimizations in wasm backend NCG

This commit enables the generic cmm optimizations in other NCGs to be
run in the wasm backend as well, followed by a late cmm control-flow
optimization pass. The added optimizations do catch some corner cases
not handled by the pre-NCG cmm pipeline and are useful in generating
smaller CFGs.

Namespacing for WARNING/DEPRECATED pragmas (#24396)

New syntax for WARNING and DEPRECATED pragmas was added,
namely namespace specifierss:

  namespace_spec ::= 'type' | 'data' | {- empty -}

  warning ::= warning_category namespace_spec namelist strings

  deprecation ::= namespace_spec namelist strings

A new data type was introduced to represent these namespace specifiers:

  data NamespaceSpecifier =
    NoSpecifier |
    TypeNamespaceSpecifier (EpToken "type") |
    DataNamespaceSpecifier (EpToken "data")

Extension field XWarning now contains this NamespaceSpecifier.

lookupBindGroupOcc function was changed: it now takes NamespaceSpecifier
and checks that the namespace of the found names matches the passed flag.
With this change {-# WARNING data D "..." #-} pragma will only affect value
namespace and {-# WARNING type D "..." #-} will only affect type
namespace. The same logic is applicable to DEPRECATED pragmas.

Finding duplicated warnings inside rnSrcWarnDecls now takes into
consideration NamespaceSpecifier flag to allow warnings with the
same names that refer to different namespaces.

Bump bytestring submodule to something closer to 0.12.1

...mostly so that 16d6b7e835ffdcf9b894e79f933dd52348dedd0c
(which reworks unaligned writes in Builder) and the stuff in
https://github.com/haskell/bytestring/pull/631 can see wider testing.

The less-terrible code for unaligned writes used in Builder on
hosts not known to be ulaigned-friendly also takes less effort
for GHC to compile, resulting in a metric decrease for T21839c
on some platforms.

The metric increase on T21839r is caused by the unrelated commit
750dac33465e7b59100698a330b44de7049a345c.  It perhaps warrants
further analysis and discussion (see #23822) but is not critical.

Work around autotools setting C11 standard in CC/CXX

In autoconf >=2.70, C11 is set by default for $CC and $CXX via the
-std=...11 flag. In this patch, we split the "-std" flag out of the $CC
and $CXX variables, which we traditionally assume to be just the
executable name/path, and move it to $CFLAGS/$CXXFLAGS instead.

Fixes #24324

Expand `do` blocks right before typechecking using the `HsExpansion` philosophy.

- Fixes #18324 #20020 #23147 #22788 #15598 #22086 #21206

- The change is detailed in
  - Note [Expanding HsDo with HsExpansion] in `GHC.Tc.Gen.Do`
  - Note [Doing HsExpansion in the Renamer vs Typechecker] in `GHC.Rename.Expr`
         expains the rational of doing expansions in type checker as opposed to in the renamer

- Adds new datatypes:
  - `GHC.Hs.Expr.XXExprGhcRn`: new datatype makes this expansion work easier
    1. Expansion bits for Expressions, Statements and Patterns in (`ExpandedThingRn`)
    2. `PopErrCtxt` a special GhcRn Phase only artifcat to pop the previous error message in the error context stack

  - `GHC.Basic.Origin` now tracks the reason for expansion in case of Generated
    This is useful for type checking cf. `GHC.Tc.Gen.Expr.tcExpr` case for `HsLam`

  - Kills `HsExpansion` and `HsExpanded` as we have inlined them in `XXExprGhcRn` and `XXExprGhcTc`

- Ensures warnings such as
  1. Pattern match checks
  2. Failable patterns
  3. non-() return in body statements are preserved

- Kill `HsMatchCtxt` in favor of `TcMatchAltChecker`

- Testcases:
  * T18324 T20020 T23147 T22788 T15598 T22086
  * T23147b (error message check),
  * DoubleMatch (match inside a match for pmc check)
  * pattern-fails (check pattern match with non-refutable pattern, eg. newtype)
  * Simple-rec (rec statements inside do statment)
  * T22788 (code snippet from #22788)
  * DoExpanion1 (Error messages for body statments)
  * DoExpansion2 (Error messages for bind statements)
  * DoExpansion3 (Error messages for let statements)

Also repoint haddock to the right submodule so that the test (haddockHypsrcTest) pass

Metric Increase 'compile_time/bytes allocated':
    T9020

The testcase is a pathalogical example of a `do`-block with many statements that do nothing.
Given that we are expanding the statements into function binds, we will have to bear
a (small) 2% cost upfront in the compiler to unroll the statements.

Refactoring in preparation for lazy skolemisation

* Make HsMatchContext and HsStmtContext be parameterised over the
  function name itself, rather than over the pass.
  See [mc_fun field of FunRhs] in Language.Haskell.Syntax.Expr
    - Replace types
        HsMatchContext GhcPs --> HsMatchContextPs
        HsMatchContext GhcRn --> HsMatchContextRn
        HsMatchContext GhcTc --> HsMatchContextRn  (sic! not Tc)
        HsStmtContext  GhcRn --> HsStmtContextRn
    - Kill off convertHsMatchCtxt

* Split GHC.Tc.Type.BasicTypes.TcSigInfo so that TcCompleteSig (describing
  a complete user-supplied signature) is its own data type.
    - Split TcIdSigInfo(CompleteSig, PartialSig) into
        TcCompleteSig(CSig)
        TcPartialSig(PSig)
    - Use TcCompleteSig in tcPolyCheck, CheckGen
    - Rename types and data constructors:
        TcIdSigInfo         --> TcIdSig
        TcPatSynInfo(TPSI)  --> TcPatSynSig(PatSig)
    - Shuffle around helper functions:
        tcSigInfoName           (moved to GHC.Tc.Types.BasicTypes)
        completeSigPolyId_maybe (moved to GHC.Tc.Types.BasicTypes)
        tcIdSigName             (inlined and removed)
        tcIdSigLoc              (introduced)
    - Rearrange the pattern match in chooseInferredQuantifiers

* Rename functions and types:
    tcMatchesCase         --> tcCaseMatches
    tcMatchesFun          --> tcFunBindMatches
    tcMatchLambda         --> tcLambdaMatches
    tcPats                --> tcMatchPats
    matchActualFunTysRho  --> matchActualFunTys
    matchActualFunTySigma --> matchActualFunTy

* Add HasDebugCallStack constraints to:
    mkBigCoreVarTupTy, mkBigCoreTupTy, boxTy,
    mkPiTy, mkPiTys, splitAppTys, splitTyConAppNoView_maybe

* Use `penv` from the outer context in the inner loop of
  GHC.Tc.Gen.Pat.tcMultiple

* Move tcMkVisFunTy, tcMkInvisFunTy, tcMkScaledFunTys down the file,
  factor out and export tcMkScaledFunTy.

* Move isPatSigCtxt down the file.

* Formatting and comments

Lazy skolemisation for @a-binders (#17594)

This patch is a preparation for @a-binders implementation.  The main changes are:

* Skolemisation is now prepared to deal with @binders.
  See Note [Skolemisation overview] in GHC.Tc.Utils.Unify.
  Most of the action is in
    - Utils.Unify.matchExpectedFunTys
    - Gen.Pat.tcMatchPats
    - Gen.Expr.tcPolyExprCheck
    - Gen.Binds.tcPolyCheck

Some accompanying refactoring:

* I found that funTyConAppTy_maybe was doing a lot of allocation, and
  rejigged userTypeError_maybe to avoid calling it.

driver: Really don't lose track of nodes when we fail to resolve cycles

This fixes a bug in 8db8d2fd1c881032b1b360c032b6d9d072c11723, where we could lose
track of acyclic components at the start of an unresolved cycle. We now ensure we
never loose track of any of these components.

As T24275 demonstrates, a "cyclic" SCC might not really be a true SCC:

When viewed without boot files, we have a single SCC

```
[REC main:T24275B [main:T24275B {-# SOURCE #-},
                   main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}]
     main:T24275A [main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}]]
```

But with boot files this turns into

```
[NONREC main:T24275B {-# SOURCE #-} [],
 REC main:T24275B [main:T24275B {-# SOURCE #-},
                   main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}]
    main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-} [main:T24275B],
 NONREC main:T24275A [main:T24275A {-# SOURCE #-}]]
```

Note that this is truly not an SCC, as no nodes are reachable from T24275B.hs-boot.
However, we treat this entire group as a single "SCC" because it seems so when we
analyse the graph without taking boot files into account.

Indeed, we must return a single ResolvedCycle element in the BuildPlan for this
as described in Note [Upsweep].

However, since after resolving this is not a true SCC anymore, `findCycle` fails
to find a cycle and we have a sub-optimal error message as a result.

To handle this, I extended `findCycle` to not assume its input is an SCC, and to
try harder to find cycles in its input.

Fixes #24275

GHCi: Lookup breakpoint CCs in the correct module

We need to look up breakpoint CCs in the module that the breakpoint

ts: add compile_artifact, ignore_extension flag

In b521354216f2821e00d75f088d74081d8b236810 the testsuite gained the
capability to collect generic metrics. But this assumed that the test
was not linking and producing artifacts and we only wanted to track
object files, interface files, or build artifacts from the compiler
build. However, some backends, such as the JS backend, produce artifacts when
compiling, such as the jsexe directory which we want to track.

This patch:

- tweaks the testsuite to collect generic metrics on any build artifact
in the test directory.

- expands the exe_extension function to consider windows and adds the
ignore_extension flag.

- Modifies certain tests to add the ignore_extension flag. Tests such as
heaprof002 expect a .ps file, but on windows without ignore_extensions
the testsuite will look for foo.exe.ps. Hence the flag.

- adds the size_hello_artifact test

Synchronize bindist configure for #24324

In cdddeb0f1280b40cc194028bbaef36e127175c4c, we set up a
workaround for #24324 in the in-tree configure script, but forgot to
update the bindist configure script accordingly. This updates it.

testsuite: Mark length001 as fragile on javascript

Modifying the timeout multiplier is not a robust way to get this test to

Javascript: Don't filter out rtsDeps list

This logic appears to be incorrect as it would drop any dependency which
was not in a direct dependency of the package being linked.

In the ghc-internals split this started to cause errors because
`ghc-internal` is not a direct dependency of most packages, and hence
important symbols to keep which are hard coded into the js runtime were
getting dropped.

Move `base` to `ghc-internal`

Here we move a good deal of the implementation of `base` into a new
package, `ghc-internal` such that it can be evolved independently
from the user-visible interfaces of `base`.

While we want to isolate implementation from interfaces, naturally, we
would like to avoid turning `base` into a mere set of module re-exports.
However, this is a non-trivial undertaking for a variety of reasons:

 * `base` contains numerous known-key and wired-in things, requiring
   corresponding changes in the compiler

 * `base` contains a significant amount of C code and corresponding
   autoconf logic, which is very fragile and difficult to break apart

 * `base` has numerous import cycles, which are currently dealt with via
   carefully balanced `hs-boot` files

 * We must not break existing users

To accomplish this migration, I tried the following approaches:

* [Split-GHC.Base]: Break apart the GHC.Base knot to allow incremental
  migration of modules into ghc-internal: this knot is simply too
  intertwined to be easily pulled apart, especially given the rather
  tricky import cycles that it contains)

* [Move-Core]: Moving the "core" connected component of base (roughly
  150 modules) into ghc-internal. While the Haskell side of this seems
  tractable, the C dependencies are very subtle to break apart.

* [Move-Incrementally]:

  1. Move all of base into ghc-internal
  2. Examine the module structure and begin moving obvious modules (e.g.
     leaves of the import graph) back into base
  3. Examine the modules remaining in ghc-internal, refactor as necessary
     to facilitate further moves
  4. Go to (2) iterate until the cost/benefit of further moves is
     insufficient to justify continuing
  5. Rename the modules moved into ghc-internal to ensure that they don't
     overlap with those in base
  6. For each module moved into ghc-internal, add a shim module to base
     with the declarations which should be exposed and any requisite
     Haddocks (thus guaranteeing that base will be insulated from changes
     in the export lists of modules in ghc-internal

Here I am using the [Move-Incrementally] approach, which is empirically
the least painful of the unpleasant options above

Bumps haddock submodule.

Metric Decrease:
    haddock.Cabal
    haddock.base
Metric Increase:

Haddock comments on infix constructors (#24221)

Rewrite the `HasHaddock` instance for `ConDecl GhcPs` to account for
infix constructors.

This change fixes a Haddock regression (introduced in 19e80b9af252)
that affected leading comments on infix data constructor declarations:

	-- | Docs for infix constructor
	| Int :* Bool

The comment should be associated with the data constructor (:*), not
with its left-hand side Int.

hadrian: Set -this-package-name

When constructing the GHC flags for a package Hadrian must take care to
set `-this-package-name` in addition to `-this-unit-id`. This hasn't
broken until now as we have not had any uses of qualified package
imports. However, this will change with `filepath-1.5` and the
corresponding `unix` bump, breaking `hadrian/multi-ghci`.

Use specific clang assembler when compiling with -fllvm

There are situations where LLVM will produce assembly which older gcc
toolchains can't handle. For example on Deb10, it seems that LLVM >= 13
produces assembly which the default gcc doesn't support.

A more robust solution in the long term is to require a specific LLVM
compatible assembler when using -fllvm.

Representation-polymorphic HasField (fixes #22156)

This generalises the HasField class to support representation polymorphism,
so that instead of

    type HasField :: forall {k} . k -> Type -> Type -> Constraint

we have

    type HasField :: forall {k} {r_rep} {a_rep} . k -> TYPE r_rep -> TYPE a_rep -> Constraint
