Improve Monad, Functor & Applicative docs

This patch aims to improve the documentation of Functor, Applicative,
Monad and related symbols. The main goal is to make it more consistent
and make accessible. See also: !10979 (closed) and !10985 (closed)

rts: eras profiling mode

The eras profiling mode is useful for tracking the life-time of
closures. When a closure is written, the current era is recorded in the
profiling header. This records the era in which the closure was created.

* Enable with -he
* User mode: Use functions ghc-experimental module GHC.Profiling.Eras to modify the era
* Automatically: --automatic-era-increment, increases the user era on major
  collections
* The first era is era 1
* -he<era> can be used with other profiling modes to select a specific
  era

If you just want to record the era but not to perform heap profiling you
can use `-he --no-automatic-heap-samples`.

Fixes #24332

JS: handle stored null StablePtr

Some Haskell codes unsafely cast StablePtr into ptr to compare against
NULL. E.g. in direct-sqlite:

  if castStablePtrToPtr aggStPtr /= nullPtr then

where `aggStPtr` is read (`peek`) from zeroed memory initially.

We fix this by giving these StablePtr the same representation as other
null pointers. It's safe because StablePtr at offset 0 is unused (for
this exact reason).

JS: add support for linking C sources

Support linking C sources with JS output of the JavaScript backend.
See the added documentation in the users guide.

The implementation simply extends the JS linker to use the objects (.o)
that were already produced by the emcc compiler and which were filtered
out previously. I've also added some options to control the link with C
functions (see the documentation about pragmas).

With this change I've successfully compiled the direct-sqlite package
which embeds the sqlite.c database code. Some wrappers are still
required (see the documentation about wrappers) but everything generic
enough to be reused for other libraries have been integrated into
rts/js/mem.js.

JS: avoid EMCC logging spurious failure

emcc would sometime output messages like:

  cache:INFO: generating system asset: symbol_lists/424b44514e43d789148e69e4e7d1c7fdc0350b79.json... (this will be cached in "/emsdk/upstream/emscripten/cache/symbol_lists/424b44514e43d789148e69e4e7d1c7fdc0350b79.json" for subsequent builds)
  cache:INFO:  - ok

Cf https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/issues/18607

This breaks our tests matching the stderr output. We avoid this by setting EMCC_LOGGING=0

nonmoving: Add support for heap profiling

Add support for heap profiling while using the nonmoving collector.

We greatly simply the implementation by disabling concurrent collection for
GCs when heap profiling is enabled. This entails that the marked objects on
the nonmoving heap are exactly the live objects.

Note that we match the behaviour for live bytes accounting by taking the size
of objects on the nonmoving heap to be that of the segment's block
rather than the object itself.

Resolves #22221

utils: add JSFFI utility code

This commit adds JavaScript util code to utils to support the wasm
backend's JSFFI functionality:

- jsffi/post-link.mjs, a post-linker to process the linked wasm module
  and emit a small complement JavaScript ESM module to be used with it
  at runtime
- jsffi/prelude.js, a tiny bit of prelude code as the JavaScript side
  of runtime logic
- jsffi/test-runner.mjs, run the jsffi test cases

This commit enables XXH3_64bits hash to be used on all 64-bit

aarch64 silently falls back to using XXH32 which degrades the hashing

Previously many of the `post*` implementations would first compute the

avoiding the repeated work.

Parser, renamer, type checker for @a-binders (#17594)

GHC Proposal 448 introduces binders for invisible type arguments
(@a-binders) in various contexts. This patch implements @-binders
in lambda patterns and function equations:

  {-# LANGUAGE TypeAbstractions #-}

  id1 :: a -> a
  id1 @t x = x :: t      -- @t-binder on the LHS of a function equation

  higherRank :: (forall a. (Num a, Bounded a) => a -> a) -> (Int8, Int16)
  higherRank f = (f 42, f 42)

  ex :: (Int8, Int16)
  ex = higherRank (\ @a x -> maxBound @a - x )
                         -- @a-binder in a lambda pattern in an argument
                         -- to a higher-order function

Syntax
------

To represent those @-binders in the AST, the list of patterns in Match
now uses ArgPat instead of Pat:

  data Match p body
     = Match {
         ...
-        m_pats  :: [LPat p],
+        m_pats  :: [LArgPat p],
         ...
   }

+ data ArgPat pass
+   = VisPat (XVisPat pass) (LPat pass)
+   | InvisPat (XInvisPat pass) (HsTyPat (NoGhcTc pass))
+   | XArgPat !(XXArgPat pass)

The VisPat constructor represents patterns for visible arguments,
which include ordinary value-level arguments and required type arguments
(neither is prefixed with a @), while InvisPat represents invisible type
arguments (prefixed with a @).

Parser
------

In the grammar (Parser.y), the lambda and lambda-cases productions of
aexp non-terminal were updated to accept argpats instead of apats:

  aexp : ...
-        | '\\' apats '->' exp
+        | '\\' argpats '->' exp
         ...
-        | '\\' 'lcases' altslist(apats)
+        | '\\' 'lcases' altslist(argpats)
         ...

+ argpat : apat
+        | PREFIX_AT atype

Function left-hand sides did not require any changes to the grammar, as
they were already parsed with productions capable of parsing @-binders.
Those binders were being rejected in post-processing (isFunLhs), and now
we accept them.

In Parser.PostProcess, patterns are constructed with the help of
PatBuilder, which is used as an intermediate data structure when
disambiguating between FunBind and PatBind. In this patch we define
ArgPatBuilder to accompany PatBuilder. ArgPatBuilder is a short-lived
data structure produced in isFunLhs and consumed in checkFunBind.

Renamer
-------

Renaming of @-binders builds upon prior work on type patterns,
implemented in 2afbddb0f24, which guarantees proper scoping and
shadowing behavior of bound type variables.

This patch merely defines rnLArgPatsAndThen to process a mix of visible
and invisible patterns:

+ rnLArgPatsAndThen :: NameMaker -> [LArgPat GhcPs] -> CpsRn [LArgPat GhcRn]
+ rnLArgPatsAndThen mk = mapM (wrapSrcSpanCps rnArgPatAndThen) where
+   rnArgPatAndThen (VisPat x p)    = ... rnLPatAndThen ...
+   rnArgPatAndThen (InvisPat _ tp) = ... rnHsTyPat ...

Common logic between rnArgPats and rnPats is factored out into the
rn_pats_general helper.

Type checker
------------

Type-checking of @-binders builds upon prior work on lazy skolemisation,
implemented in f5d3e03c56f.

This patch extends tcMatchPats to handle @-binders. Now it takes and
returns a list of LArgPat rather than LPat:

  tcMatchPats ::
              ...
-             -> [LPat GhcRn]
+             -> [LArgPat GhcRn]

-             -> TcM ([LPat GhcTc], a)
+             -> TcM ([LArgPat GhcTc], a)

Invisible binders in the Match are matched up with invisible (Specified)
foralls in the type. This is done with a new clause in the `loop` worker
of tcMatchPats:

  loop :: [LArgPat GhcRn] -> [ExpPatType] -> TcM ([LArgPat GhcTc], a)
  loop (L l apat : pats) (ExpForAllPatTy (Bndr tv vis) : pat_tys)
    ...
    -- NEW CLAUSE:
    | InvisPat _ tp <- apat, isSpecifiedForAllTyFlag vis
    = ...

In addition to that, tcMatchPats no longer discards type patterns. This
is done by filterOutErasedPats in the desugarer instead.

hadrian: Generate HSC2HS_EXTRAS variable in bindist installation

We must generate the hsc2hs wrapper at bindist installation time since
it must contain `--lflag` and `--cflag` arguments which depend upon the
installation path.

The solution here is to substitute these variables in the configure
script (see mk/hsc2hs.in). This is then copied over a dummy wrapper in
the install rules.

Fixes #24050.

Namespacing for fixity signatures (#14032)

Namespace specifiers were added to syntax of fixity signatures:
  - sigdecl ::= infix prec ops | ...
  + sigdecl ::= infix prec namespace_spec ops | ...

To preserve namespace during renaming MiniFixityEnv type
now has separate FastStringEnv fields for names that should be
on the term level and for name that should be on the type level.

makeMiniFixityEnv function was changed to fill MiniFixityEnv in the right way:
 - signatures without namespace specifiers fill both fields
 - signatures with 'data' specifier fill data field only
 - signatures with 'type' specifier fill type field only

Was added helper function lookupMiniFixityEnv that takes care about
looking for a name in an appropriate namespace.

rts: remove unused HAVE_C11_ATOMICS macro

This commit removes the unused HAVE_C11_ATOMICS macro. We used to have
a few places that have fallback paths when HAVE_C11_ATOMICS is not
defined, but that is completely redundant, since the
FP_CC_SUPPORTS__ATOMICS configure check will fail when the C compiler
doesn't support C11 style atomics. There are also many places (e.g. in
unreg backend, SMP.h, library cbits, etc) where we unconditionally use
C11 style atomics anyway which work in even CentOS 7 (gcc 4.8), the
oldest distro we test in our CI, so there's no value in keeping
HAVE_C11_ATOMICS.

hadrian/hie-bios: pass -j to hadrian

This commit passes -j to hadrian in the hadrian/hie-bios scripts. When
the user starts HLS in a fresh clone that has just been configured, it
takes quite a while for hie-bios to pick up the ghc flags and start
actual indexing, due to the fact that the hadrian build step defaulted
to -j1, so -j speeds things up and improve HLS user experience in GHC.
Also add -j flag to .ghcid to speed up ghcid, and sets the Windows
build root to .hie-bios which also works and unifies with other
platforms, the previous build root _hie-bios was missing from
.gitignore anyway.

```
$ cc --version

```

This fails the check and outputs the confusing message: `configure: $CC is not gcc; assuming it's a reasonably new C compiler`

This patch makes it check for upper-cased "GCC" too so that it works correctly:

```

But when compiling with optimizations, this sort of code is
generally eliminated by case-of-known-constructor in Core-to-Core.

rts: avoid checking bdescr of value outside of Haskell heap

In nonmovingTidyWeaks we want to check if the key of a weak pointer
lives in the non-moving heap. We do this by checking the flags of the
block the key lives in. But we need to be careful with values that live
outside the Haskell heap, since they will lack a block descriptor and
looking for one may lead to a segfault. In this case we should just
accept that it isn't on the non-moving heap.

Introduce ListTuplePuns extension

This implements Proposal 0475, introducing the `ListTuplePuns` extension
which is enabled by default.

Disabling this extension makes it invalid to refer to list, tuple and
sum type constructors by using built-in syntax like `[Int]`,
`(Int, Int)`, `(# Int#, Int# #)` or `(# Int | Int #)`.
Instead, this syntax exclusively denotes data constructors for use with
`DataKinds`.
The conventional way of referring to these data constructors by
prefixing them with a single quote (`'(Int, Int)`) is now a parser
error.

Tuple declarations have been moved to `GHC.Tuple.Prim` and the `Solo`
data constructor has been renamed to `MkSolo` (in a previous commit).
Unboxed tuples and sums now have real source declarations in `GHC.Types`.
Unit and solo types for tuples are now called `Unit`, `Unit#`, `Solo`
and `Solo#`.
Constraint tuples now have the unambiguous type constructors `CTuple<n>`
as well as `CUnit` and `CSolo`, defined in `GHC.Classes` like before.

A new parser construct has been added for the unboxed sum data
constructor declarations.

The type families `Tuple`, `Sum#` etc. that were intended to provide
nicer syntax have been omitted from this change set due to inference
problems, to be implemented at a later time.
See the MR discussion for more info.

Updates the submodule utils/haddock.

Fix haddock source links and hyperlinked source

There were a few issues with the hackage links:

1. We were using the package id rather than the package name for the
   package links. This is fixed by now allowing the template to mention
   %pkg% or %pkgid% and substituing both appropiatly.
2. The `--haddock-base-url` flag is renamed to `--haddock-for-hackage`
   as the new base link works on a local or remote hackage server.
3. The "src" path including too much stuff, so cross-package source
   links were broken as the template was getting double expanded.

Fixes #24086

Three compile perf improvements with deep nesting

These were changes are all triggered by #24471.

1. Make GHC.Core.Opt.SetLevels.lvlMFE behave better when there are
   many free variables.  See Note [Large free-variable sets].

2. Make GHC.Core.Opt.Arity.floatIn a bit lazier in its Cost argument.
   This benefits the common case where the ArityType turns out to
   be nullary. See Note [Care with nested expressions]

3. Make GHC.CoreToStg.Prep.cpeArg behave for deeply-nested
   expressions.  See Note [Eta expansion of arguments in CorePrep]
   wrinkle (EA2).

Compile times go down by up to 4.5%, and much more in artificial
cases. (Geo mean of compiler/perf changes is -0.4%.)

Rephrase error message to say "visible arguments" (#24318)

* Main change: make the error message generated by mkFunTysMsg more
  accurate by changing "value arguments" to "visible arguments".

* Refactor: define a new type synonym VisArity and use it instead of
  Arity in a few places.

It might be the case that there other places in the compiler that should
talk about visible arguments rather than value arguments, but I haven't
tried to find them all, focusing only on the error message reported in
the ticket.

base: Introduce exception backtraces

Here we introduce the `Backtraces` type and associated machinery for
attaching these via `ExceptionContext`. These has a few compile-time
regressions (`T15703` and `T9872d`) due to the additional dependencies
in the exception machinery.

As well, there is a surprisingly large regression in the
`size_hello_artifact` test. This appears to be due to various `Integer` and
`Read` bits now being reachable at link-time. I believe it should be
possible to avoid this but I have accepted the change for now to get the
feature merged.

rts: Fix SET_HDR initialization of retainer set

This fixes a regression in retainer set profiling introduced by
b0293f78cb6acf2540389e22bdda420d0ab874da. Prior to that commit
the heap traversal word would be initialized by `SET_HDR` using
`LDV_RECORD_CREATE`. However, the commit added a `doingLDVProfiling`
check in `LDV_RECORD_CREATE`, meaning that this initialization no longer
happened.

Given that this initialization was awkwardly indirectly anyways, I have
fixed this by explicitly initializating the heap traversal word to
`NULL` in `SET_PROF_HDR`. This is equivalent to the previous behavior,
but much more direct.

Fixes #24513.

Simplifier improvements

This MR started as: allow the simplifer to do more in one pass,
arising from places I could see the simplifier taking two iterations
where one would do.  But it turned into a larger project, because
these changes unexpectedly made inlining blow up, especially join
points in deeply-nested cases.

The net result is good: a 1.5% improvement in compile time.  The table
below shows changes over 1%.

The main changes are:

* The SimplEnv now has a seInlineDepth field, which says how deep
  in unfoldings we are.  See Note [Inline depth] in Simplify.Env

* Avoid repeatedly simplifying coercions.
  see Note [Avoid re-simplifying coercions] in Simplify.Iteration
  As you'll see from the Note, this makes use of the seInlineDepth.

* Allow Simplify.Utils.postInlineUnconditionally to inline variables
  that are used exactly once. See Note [Post-inline for single-use things].

* Allow Simplify.Iteration.simplAuxBind to inline used-once things.
  This is another part of Note [Post-inline for single-use things], and
  is really good for reducing simplifier iterations in situations like
      case K e of { K x -> blah }
  wher x is used once in blah.

* Make GHC.Core.SimpleOpt.exprIsConApp_maybe do some simple case
  elimination.  Note [Case elim in exprIsConApp_maybe]

* Many new or rewritten Notes.  E.g. Note [Avoiding simplifying repeatedly]

Join points
~~~~~~~~~~~
* Be very careful about inlining join points. See
  Note [Duplicating join points] in GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Iteration

* When making join points, don't do so if the join point is so small
  it will immediately be inlined; check uncondInlineJoin.

* When considering inlining a join point, never do so unless
  there is a positive gain: see (DJ5) in Note [Duplicating join points].

* Do not float join points at all, except to top level.
  See GHC.Core.Opt.SetLevels.dontFloatNonRec

* Do not add an unfolding to a join point at birth.  This is a tricky one
  and has a long Note [Do not add unfoldings to join points at birth]
  It shows up in two places
  - In `mkDupableAlt` do not add an inlining
  - (trickier) In `simplLetUnfolding` don't add an unfolding for a
    fresh join point
  I am not fully satisifed with this, but it works and is well documented.

* In GHC.Core.Unfold.sizeExpr, make jumps small, so that we don't penalise
  having a non-inlined join point.

* Use plan A for dataToTag and tagToEnum

I discovered that GHC.HsToCore.Pmc.Solver.Types.trvVarInfo was very
delicately balanced.  It's a small, heavily used, overloaded function
and it's important that it inlines. By a fluke it was before, but at
various times in my journey it stopped doing so.  So I added an INLINE
pragma to it.

Improve postInlineUnconditionally

This commit adds two things to postInlineUnconditionally:

1. Do not postInlineUnconditionally join point, ever.
   Doing so does not reduce allocation, which is the main point,
   and with join points that are used a lot it can bloat code.
   See point (1) of Note [Duplicating join points] in
   GHC.Core.Opt.Simplify.Iteration.

2. Do not postInlineUnconditionally a strict (demanded) binding.
   It will not allocate a thunk (it'll turn into a case instead)
   so again the main point of inlining it doesn't hold.  Better
   to check per-call-site.

Inline join points that have evaluated things at the use site.

This helps quite a bit with wheel-sieve1.  Example

   let x = <small thunk> in
   join $j = (x,y) in
   case z of
     A -> case x of
            P -> $j
            Q -> blah
     B -> x
     C -> True

Here `x` can't be duplicated into the branches becuase it is used
in both the join point and the A branch.  But if we inline $j we get

   let x = <small thunk> in
   join $j = (x,y) in
   case z of
     A -> case x of x'
            P -> (x', y)
            Q -> blah
     B -> x
     C -> True

and now we /can/ duplicate x into the branches.
