rts: ensure gc_thread/gen_workspace is allocated with proper alignment

gc_thread/gen_workspace are required to be aligned by 64 bytes.
However, this property has not been properly enforced before, and
numerous alignment violations at runtime has been caught by
UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer that look like:

```
rts/sm/GC.c:1167:8: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x0000027a3390 for type 'gc_thread' (aka 'struct gc_thread_'), which requires 64 byte alignment
0x0000027a3390: note: pointer points here
 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00
              ^

```

This patch fixes the gc_thread/gen_workspace misalignment issue by
explicitly allocating them with alignment constraint.

rts: fix an unaligned load in nonmoving gc

This patch fixes an unaligned load in nonmoving gc by ensuring the
closure address is properly untagged first before attempting to
prefetch its header. The unaligned load is reported by
UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer:

```
rts/sm/NonMovingMark.c:921:9: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x0042005f3a71 for type 'StgClosure' (aka 'struct StgClosure_'), which requires 8 byte alignment
0x0042005f3a71: note: pointer points here
 00 00 00  98 43 13 8e 12 7f 00 00  50 3c 5f 00 42 00 00 00  58 17 b7 92 12 7f 00 00  89 cb 5e 00 42
              ^
SUMMARY: UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer: undefined-behavior rts/sm/NonMovingMark.c:921:9
```

This issue had previously gone unnoticed since it didn't really harm
runtime correctness, the invalid header address directly loaded from a
tagged pointer is only used as prefetch address and will not cause
segfaults. However, it still should be corrected because the prefetch
would be rendered useless by this issue, and untagging only involves a
single bitwise operation without memory access so it's cheap enough to
add.

rts: use __builtin_offsetof to implement STG_FIELD_OFFSET

This patch fixes the STG_FIELD_OFFSET macro definition by using
__builtin_offsetof, which is what gcc/clang uses to implement offsetof
in standard C. The previous definition that uses NULL pointer involves
subtle undefined behavior in C and thus reported by
UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer as well:

```
rts/Capability.h:243:58: runtime error: member access within null pointer of type 'Capability' (aka 'struct Capability_')
SUMMARY: UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer: undefined-behavior rts/Capability.h:243:58
```

ghcup-metadata: Fix metadata generation

There were some syntax errors in the generation script which were
preventing it from running.

I have tested this with:

```
nix shell --extra-experimental-features nix-command -f .gitlab/rel_eng -c ghcup-metadata --metadata ghcup-0.0.7.yaml --date="2024-05-27" --pipeline-id=95534 --version=9.11.20240525
```

which completed successfully.

Add diagrams to Arrows documentation

This adds diagrams to the documentation of Arrows, similar to the ones found on
https://www.haskell.org/arrows/.

It does not add diagrams for ArrowChoice for the time being, mainly because it's
not clear to me how to visually distinguish them from the ones for Arrow. Ideally,
you might want to do something like highlight the arrows belonging to the same
tuple or same Either in common colors, but that's not really possible with unicode.
