Hadrian: avoid response files when command line is short enough
This replaces the logic of always using response files on Windows.
With the new condition based on command line lenght, reponse files
can be avoided in many more cases (on windows).
Now that response files are only used in a small number of cases,
response files are always kept and the -r / --keep-response-files
command line options have been removed
The response file paths are nolonger randomized. They are placed in the
`_build/rsp` directory. This ensures they are ignored by git and we
that Hadrian reuses response file paths when rebuilding rather than
leaving stale response files around.
Update user guide putting response files in its own section

Hadrian: remove unused wrapper scripts from windows bindist
These wrapper scripts are only installed on non-relocatable builds
which are not generally supported on windows.

Don't drop ticks around variables of type `IO ()`
GHC.Core.Utils.mkTick is responsible for placing a tick on a Core
expression. It contains logic for dropping SCCs (non-counting profiling
ticks) around non-function variables, as such variables cannot
meaningfully contribute to profiles. However, the logic for what counts
as a function was incorrect: it used `isFunTy` which returns 'False' for
types such as 'IO ()' where the function arrow is hidden under a
newtype.
We now use 'mightBeFunTy' instead of 'isFunTy'. This ensures we don't
drop ticks in cases we aren't sure.
On the way, we improve the documentation of 'isFunTy', 'isPiTy' and
'mightBeFunTy', and update the latter's implementation to consistently
handle unary classes.

testsuite: Add regression test for #4081
Check that a strict constructor field is unboxed once outside an
enclosing loop, not re-inspected each iteration (the float-out
case-floating from 9cb20b488). Uses simonpj's `data T a = T !a` example
from the ticket; T4081.stderr captures the expected Core.

Check for cabal-install >= 3.12 upfront
Starting with commit 8cb99552f607f6bc4000e45ab32532d50c8bb996, Hadrian
requires cabal-install >= 3.12 in order to use the 'cabal path' command
that was introduced in version 3.12, as per
https://github.com/haskell/cabal/blob/a51c4ee1556d816ad86e90db7e6330dd51b0b6e7/release-notes/cabal-install-3.12.1.0.md?plain=1#L45
This was not reflected in the Hadrian build script, causing a delayed
build failure instead of enforcing the version requirement upfront,
which this patch does.
Fixes #27317

Fix crash in Data.Data instance for HsCtxt
The Data.Data instance for HsCtxt contained an error for the 'toConstr'
method, which could trigger for example when looking at -ddump-tc-ast
traces. Replace it with the 'abstractConstr' pattern used in the rest of
the codebase.
