compiler: Turn `FinderCache` into a record of operations so that GHC API clients can
have full control over how its state is managed by overriding `hsc_FC`.

Also removes the `uncacheModule` function as this wasn't being used by anything
since 1893ba12fe1fa2ade35a62c336594afcd569736e

Fixes #23604

rts: use live words to estimate heap size

We use live words rather than live blocks to determine the size of the
heap for determining memory retention.

Most of the time these two metrics align, but they can come apart in
normal usage when using the nonmoving collector.

The nonmoving collector leads to a lot of partially occupied blocks. So,
using live words is more accurate.

They can also come apart when the heap is suffering from high levels
fragmentation caused by small pinned objects, but in this case, the
block size is the more accurate metric. Since this case is best avoided
anyway. It is ok to accept the trade-off that we might try (and
probably) fail to return more memory in this case.

See also the Note [Statistics for retaining memory]

Resolves #23397

Correct -Wpartial-fields warning to say "Definition" rather than "Use"

Fixes #24710.  The message and documentation for `-Wpartial-fields` were
misleading as (a) the warning occurs at definition sites rather than use
sites, and (b) the warning relates to the definition of a field independently
of the selector function (e.g. because record updates are also partial).

GHCi: Support local Prelude

Fixes #10920, an issue where GHCi bails out when started alongside a
file named Prelude.hs or Prelude.lhs (even empty file suffices).

The in-source Note [GHCi and local Preludes] documents core reasoning.

Supplementary changes:

 * add debug traces for module lookups under -ddump-if-trace;
 * drop stale comment in GHC.Iface.Load;
 * reduce noise in -v3 traces from GHC.Utils.TmpFs;
 * new test, which also exercizes HomeModError.

Add missing gParPat in cvtp's ViewP case

When converting a `ViewP` using `cvtp`, we need to ensure that the view pattern
is parenthesized so that the resulting code will parse correctly when
roundtripped back through GHC's parser.

Fixes #24894.

ttg: extract Specificity, ForAllTyFlag and helper functions from GHC.Types.Var

Progress towards #21592

Specificity, ForAllTyFlag and its' helper functions are extracted from
GHC.Types.Var and moved into a new module Language.Haskell.Syntax.Specificity.

Note: Eventually (i.e. after Language.Haskell.Syntax.Decls does not depend on
GHC.* anymore) these should be moved into Language.Haskell.Syntax.Decls.
At this point, this would cause cyclic dependencies.

ttg: Split HsSrcBang, remove ref to DataCon from Syntax.Type

Progress towards #21592

This splits HsSrcBang up, creating the new HsBang within
`Language.Haskell.Syntax.Basic`. `HsBang` holds the unpackedness
and strictness information, while `HsSrcBang` only adds the SourceText
for usage within the compiler directly.

Inside the AST, to preserve the SourceText, it is hidden behind the
pre-existing extension point `XBindTy`. All other occurrences of
`HsSrcBang` were adapted to deconstruct the inner `HsBang`, and when
interacting with the `BindTy` constructor, the hidden `SourceText` is
extracted/inserted into the `XBindTy` extension point.

`GHC.Core.DataCon` exports both `HsSrcBang` and `HsBang` for
convenience. A constructor function `mkHsSrcBang` that takes all
individual components has been added.

Two exceptions has been made though:
- The `Outputable HsSrcBang` instance is replaced by
  `Outputable HsBang`. While being only GHC-internal, the only place
  it's used is in outputting `HsBangTy` constructors -- which already
  have `HsBang`. It wouldn't make sense to reconstruct a `HsSrcBang` just
  to ignore the `SourceText` anyway.
- The error `TcRnUnexpectedAnnotation` did not use the `SourceText`,
  so it too now only holds a `HsBang`.

configure: Set LD_STAGE0 appropiately when 9.10.1 is used as a boot compiler

In 9.10.1 the "ld command" has been removed, so we fall back to using
the more precise "merge objects command" when it's available as
LD_STAGE0 is only used to set the object merging command in hadrian.

Fixes #24949

hadrian: Don't build ghci object files for ./hadrian/ghci target

There is some convoluted logic which determines whether we build ghci
object files are not. In any case, if you set `ghcDynPrograms = pure
False` then it forces them to be built.

Given we aren't ever building executables with this flavour it's fine
to leave `ghcDynPrograms` as the default and it should be a bit faster
to build less.

Also fixes #24949

hadrian: Remove STG dump from ticky_ghc flavour transformer

This adds 10-15 minutes to build time, it is a better strategy to
precisely enable dumps for the modules which show up prominently in a
ticky profile.

Given I am one of the only people regularly building ticky compilers I
think it's worthwhile to remove these.

ngc: Workaround WW vs SPEC bug in pprinting

Adds INLINABLE to `pprName` and `pprCLabelStyle` which turned up in a
profile as unspecialised at types where it should have been specialised.

The INLINABLE pragma works around a bug which causes specialisation
to be missed due to Worker Wrapper (#25060).

See also #25060 and #21851

Specialising these functions improves compile time allocations:

geo. mean                                          -0.5%
minimum                                            -3.2%
maximum                                            +0.2%

ncg: Don't execute dwarfGen for SDoc unnecessarily

`dwarfGen @SDoc` is only needed if -ddump-asm is enabled (see emitNativeCode).
Matching on the tuple forced unnecessary execution since the unique supply
is threaded through -- use a lazy pattern instead.

regAlloc showed up in a time profile unspecialised, and making sure it
is specialised is noticeable in the profile.
Enabling it shaved off some 15ms compiling Cabal on my machine.
