Improve how we detect user type errors in types
This commit cleans up all the code responsible for detecting whether a
type contains "TypeError msg" applications nested inside it. All the
logic is now in 'userTypeError_maybe', which is always deep. Whether
it looks inside type family applications is determined by the passed-in
boolean flag:
- When deciding whether a constraint is definitely insoluble, don't
look inside type family applications, as they may still reduce -- in
which case the TypeError could disappear.
- When reporting unsolved constraints, look inside type family
applications: they had the chance to reduce but didn't, and the
custom type error might contain valuable information.
All the details are explained in Note [Custom type errors in constraints]
in GHC.Tc.Types.Constraint.
Another benefit of this change is that it allows us to get rid of the
deeply dodgy 'getUserTypeErrorMsg' function.
This commit also improves the detection of custom type errors, for
example in equality constraints:
TypeError blah ~# rhs
It used to be the case that we didn't detect the TypeError on the LHS,
because we never considered that equality constraints could be insoluble
due to the presence of custom type errors. Addressing this oversight
improves detection of redundant pattern match warnings, fixing #26400.

cleanup: Drop obsolete settings from config.mk.in
These values used to be spliced into the bindist's `config.mk` s.t. when
`make` was run, the values were read and written into the bindist installation `settings` file.
However, we now carry these values to the bindist directly in the
default.target toolchain file, and `make` writes almost nothing to
`settings` now (see #26227)
The entries deleted in this MR were already unused.

rts/posix: Hold on to low reservations when reserving heap
Previously when the OS gave us an address space reservation in low
memory we would immediately release it and try again. However, on some
platforms this meant that we would get the same allocation again in the
next iteration (since mmap's `hint` argument is just that, a hint).
Instead we now hold on to low reservations until we have found a
suitable heap reservation.
Fixes #26151.

Build terminfo only in upper stages in cross-builds (#26288)
Currently, there's no way to provide library paths for [n]curses for
both - build and target - in cross-builds. As stage0 is only used to
build upper stages, it should be fine to build terminfo only for them.
This re-enables building cross-compilers with terminfo.

Improvements to 'mayLookIdentical'
This commit makes significant improvements to the machinery that decides
when we should pretty-print the "invisible bits" of a type, such as:
- kind applications, e.g. '@k' in 'Proxy @k ty'
- RuntimeReps, e.g. 'TYPE r'
- multiplicities and linear arrows 'a %1 -> b'
To do this, this commit refactors 'mayLookIdentical' to return **which**
of the invisible bits don't match up, e.g. in
(a %1 -> b) ~ (a %Many -> b)
we find that the invisible bit that doesn't match up is a multiplicity,
so we should set 'sdocLinearTypes = True' when pretty-printing, and with
e.g.
Proxy @k1 ~ Proxy @k2
we find that the invisible bit that doesn't match up is an invisible
TyCon argument, so we set 'sdocPrintExplicitKinds = True'.
We leverage these changes to remove the ad-hoc treatment of linearity
of data constructors with 'dataConDisplayType' and 'dataConNonLinearType'.
This is now handled by the machinery of 'pprWithInvisibleBits'.
Fixes #26335 #26340

Store SDoc context in SourceError
This commits modifies the SourceError datatype which is used for
throwing and then reporting exceptions by storing all the info we need
to be able to print the SDoc, including whether we should print with
explicit kinds, explicit runtime-reps, etc.
This is done using the new datatype:
data SourceErrorContext
= SEC
!DiagOpts
!(DiagnosticOpts GhcMessage)
Now, when we come to report an error (by handling the exception), we
have access to the full context we need.

Add support for generating bytecode objects
This commit adds the `-fwrite-byte-code` option which makes GHC emit a
`.gbc` file which contains a serialised representation of bytecode.
The bytecode can be loaded by the compiler to avoid having to
reinterpret a module when using the bytecode interpreter (for example,
in GHCi).
There are also the new options:
* -gbcdir=<DIR>: Specify the directory to place the gbc files
* -gbcsuf=<suffix>: Specify the suffix for gbc files
The option `-fbyte-code-and-object-code` now implies
`-fwrite-byte-code`.
These performance tests fail due to https://github.com/haskell/directory/issues/204

Revert "Add a perf test for #26425"
This test has a large memory spike currently, which makes the test
sensitive, since if you allocate a little more or less, the precise
location where GC happens shifts and you observe a different part of the
spike.
Andreas told me to revert the patch for now, and he will add it back
when he fixes the memory spike.
This reverts commit 41bdb16fd083110a06507248f648c507a2feb4af.

testsuite: fix T3586 for non-SSE3 platforms
`T3586.hs` contains `-fvia-C -optc-msse3` which I think is a
best-effort basis to harvest the C compiler's auto vectorization
optimizations via the C backend back when the test was added. The
`-fvia-C` part is now a deprecated no-op because GHC can't fall back
to the C backend on a non-unregisterised build, and `-optc-msse3`
might actually cause the test to fail on non x86/x64 platforms, e.g.
recent builds of wasi-sdk would report `wasm32-wasi-clang: error:
unsupported option '-msse3' for target 'wasm32-unknown-wasi'`.
So this patch cleans up this historical cruft. `-fvia-C` is removed,
and `-optc-msse3` is only passed when cpuid contains `pni` (which
indicates support of SSE3).

Allow per constructor refinement of distinct-constructor-tables
Introduce `-fno-distinct-constructor-tables`. A distinct constructor table
configuration is built from the combination of flags given, in order. For
example, to only generate distinct constructor tables for a few specific
constructors and no others, just pass
`-fdistinct-constructor-tables-only=C1,...,CN`.
This flag can be supplied multiple times to extend the set of
constructors to generate a distinct info table for.
You can disable generation of distinct constructor tables for all
configurations by passing `-fno-distinct-constructor-tables`.
The various configurations of these flags is included in the `DynFlags`
fingerprints, which should result in the expected recompilation logic.
Adds a test that checks for distinct tables for various given or omitted
constructors.
Updates CountDepsAst and CountDepsParser tests to account for new dependencies.

Don't prematurely final-zonk PatSyn declarations
This commit makes GHC hold off on the final zonk for pattern synonym
declarations, in 'GHC.Tc.TyCl.PatSyn.tc_patsyn_finish'.
This accommodates the fact that pattern synonym declarations without a
type signature can contain unfilled metavariables, e.g. if the RHS of
the pattern synonym involves view-patterns whose type mentions promoted
(level 0) metavariables. Just like we do for ordinary function bindings,
we should allow these metavariables to be settled later, instead of
eagerly performing a final zonk-to-type.
Now, the final zonking-to-type for pattern synonyms is performed in
GHC.Tc.Module.zonkTcGblEnv.

Move code-gen aux symbols from ghc-internal to rts
These symbols were all previously defined in ghc-internal and made the
dependency structure awkward, where the rts may refer to some of these
symbols and had to work around that circular dependency the way
described in #26166.
Moreover, the code generator will produce code that uses these symbols!
Therefore, they should be available in the rts:
PRINCIPLE: If the code generator may produce code which uses this
symbol, then it should be defined in the rts rather than, say,
ghc-internal.
That said, the main motivation is towards fixing #26166.

Add hints for unsolved HasField constraints
This commit adds hints and explanations for unsolved 'HasField'
constraints.
GHC will now provide additional explanations for an unsolved constraint
of the form 'HasField fld_name rec_ty fld_ty'; the details are laid out in
Note [Error messages for unsolved HasField constraints], but briefly:
1. Provide similar name suggestions (e.g. mis-spelled field name)
and import suggestions (record field not in scope).
These result in actionable 'GhcHints', which is helpful to provide
code actions in HLS.
2. Explain why GHC did not solve the constraint, e.g.:
- 'fld_name' is not a string literal (e.g. a type variable)
- 'rec_ty' is a TyCon without any fields, e.g. 'Int' or 'Bool'.
- 'fld_ty' contains existentials variables or foralls.
- The record field is a pattern synonym field (GHC does not generate
HasField instances for those).
- 'HasField' is a custom 'TyCon', not actually the built-in
'HasField' typeclass from 'GHC.Records'.
On the way, we slightly refactor the mechanisms for import suggestions
in GHC.Rename.Unbound. This is to account for the fact that, for
'HasField', we don't care whether the field is imported qualified or
unqualified. 'importSuggestions' was refactored, we now have
'sameQualImportSuggestions' and 'anyQualImportSuggestions'.
