JS: fake support for native adjustors (#25159)

The JS backend doesn't support adjustors (I believe) and in any case if
it ever supports them it will be a native support, not one via libffi.

Refactor only newSysLocalDs

* Change newSysLocalDs to take a scaled type
* Add newSysLocalMDs that takes a type and makes a ManyTy local

Lots of files touched, nothing deep.

Don't introduce 'nospec' on the LHS of a RULE

This patch address #25160.  The main payload is:

* When desugaring the LHS of a RULE, do not introduce the `nospec` call
  for non-canonical evidence.  See GHC.Core.InstEnv
  Note [Coherence and specialisation: overview]

  The `nospec` call usually introdued in `dsHsWrapper`, but we don't want it
  on the LHS of a RULE (that's what caused #25160).  So now `dsHsWrapper` takes
  a flag to say if it's on the LHS of a RULE.  See wrinkle (NC1) in
  `Note [Desugaring non-canonical evidence]` in GHC.HsToCore.Binds.

But I think this flag will go away again when I have finished with my
(entirely separate) speciaise-on-values patch (#24359).

All this meant I had to re-understand the `nospec` stuff and coherence, and
that in turn made me do some refactoring, and add a lot of new documentation

The big change is that in GHC.Core.InstEnv, I changed
  the /type synonym/ `Canonical` into
  a /data type/ `CanonicalEvidence`
and documented it a lot better.

That in turn made me realise that CalLStacks were being treated with a
bit of a hack, which I documented in `Note [CallStack and ExecptionContext hack]`.

Add defaulting of equalities

This MR adds one new defaulting strategy to the top-level
defaulting story: see Note [Defaulting equalities] in GHC.Tc.Solver.

This resolves #25029 and #25125, which showed that users were
accidentally relying on a GHC bug, which was fixed by

    commit 04f5bb85c8109843b9ac2af2a3e26544d05e02f4
    Author: Simon Peyton Jones <simon.peytonjones at gmail.com>

    Fix untouchability test

    This MR fixes #24938.  The underlying problem was tha the test for
    "does this implication bring in scope any equalities" was plain wrong.

This fix gave rise to a number of user complaints; but the improved
defaulting story of this MR largely resolves them.

On the way I did a bit of refactoring, of course

* Completely restructure the extremely messy top-level defaulting
  code. The new code is in GHC.Tc.Solver.tryDefaulting, and is much,
  much, much esaier to grok.

Don't name a binding pattern

It's a keyword when PatternSynonyms are set.

Do not use an error thunk for an absent dictionary

In worker/wrapper we were using an error thunk for an absent dictionary,
but that works very badly for -XDictsStrict, or even (as #24934 showed)
in some complicated cases involving strictness analysis and unfoldings.

This MR just uses RubbishLit for dictionaries. Simple.

No test case, sadly because our only repro case is rather complicated.

hadrian: Make sure ffi headers are built before using a compiler

When we are using ffi adjustors then we rely on `ffi.h` and
`ffitarget.h` files during code generation when compiling stubs.

Therefore we need to add this dependency to the build system (which this
patch does).

Reproducer, configure with `--enable-libffi-adjustors` and then build
"_build/stage1/libraries/ghc-prim/build/GHC/Types.p_o".

Observe that this fails before this patch and works afterwards.

Fixes #24864
