GHCi interpreter: Tag constructor closures when possible.

When evaluating PUSH_G try to tag the reference we are pushing if it's a
constructor. This is potentially helpful for performance and required to
fix #24870.

Implement Data.List.compareLength and Data.List.NonEmpty.compareLength

`compareLength xs n` is a safer and faster alternative to `compare (length xs) n`.
The latter would force and traverse the entire spine (potentially diverging),
while the former traverses as few elements as possible.

The implementation is carefully designed to maintain as much laziness as possible.

As per https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/257

Unicode: adding compact version of GeneralCategory (resolves #24789)

The following features are applied:
1. Lookup code like Cmm-switches (draft implementation proposed by Sylvain Henry @hsyl20)
2. Nested ifs (logarithmic search vs linear search) (the idea proposed by Sylvain Henry @hsyl20)

Expand LLVM version matching regex for compability with bsd systems

sed on BSD systems (such as darwin) does not support the + operation.

Therefore we take the simple minded approach of manually expanding
group+ to groupgroup*.

X86/DWARF: support no tables-next-to-code and asm-shortcutting (#22792)

- Without TNTC (tables-next-to-code), we must be careful to not
  duplicate labels in pprNatCmmDecl. Especially, as a CmmProc is
  identified by the label of its entry block (and not of its info
  table), we can't reuse the same label to delimit the block end and the
  proc end.

- We generate debug infos from Cmm blocks. However, when
  asm-shortcutting is enabled, some blocks are dropped at the asm
  codegen stage and some labels in the DebugBlocks become missing.
  We fix this by filtering the generated debug-info after the asm
  codegen to only keep valid infos.

Also add some related documentation.

primops: Undeprecate addr2Int# and int2Addr#

addr2Int# and int2Addr# were marked as deprecated with the introduction
of the OCaml code generator (1dfaee318171836b32f6b33a14231c69adfdef2f)
due to its use of tagged integers. However, this backend has long
vanished and `base` has all along been using `addr2Int#` in the Show
instance for Ptr.

While it's unlikely that we will have another backend which has tagged
integers, we may indeed support platforms which have tagged pointers.
Consequently we undeprecate the operations but warn the user that the
operations may not be portable.

primops: Ensure that deprecations are properly tracked

We previously failed to insert DEPRECATION pragmas into GHC.Prim's
ModIface, meaning that they would appear in the Haddock documentation
but not issue warnings. Fix this.

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`.

In 9.10.1 the "ld command" has been removed, so we fall back to using

LD_STAGE0 is only used to set the object merging command in hadrian.

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

This adds 10-15 minutes to build time, it is a better strategy to

think it's worthwhile to remove these.

hadrian does not utilise the build-tool-depends fields in cabal files

would remove the need for workarounds in hadrian but for now we can
patch the build-tool-depends out of the cabal files.

testsuite: Don't attempt to link when checking whether a way is supported

It is sufficient to check that the simple test file compiles as it will
fail if there are not the relevant library files for the requested way.

If you break a way so badly that even a simple executable fails to link
(as I did for profiled dynamic way), it will just mean the tests for
that way are skipped on CI rather than displayed.
