Build external interpreter program on demand (#24731)
This patch teaches GHC how to build the external interpreter program
when it is missing. As long as we have the `ghci` library, doing this is
trivial so most of this patch is refactoring for doing it sanely.

Switch off specialisation in ExactPrint
In !15057 (where we re-introduced -fpolymoprhic-specialisation) we found
that ExactPrint's compile time blew up by a factor of 5. It turned out
to be caused by bazillions of specialisations of `markAnnotated`.
Since ExactPrint isn't perf-critical, it does not seem worth taking
the performance hit, so this patch switches off specialisation in
this one module.

Switch -fpolymorphic-specialisation on by default
This patch addresses #23559.
Now that !10479 has landed and #26329 is fixed, we can switch on
polymorphic specialisation by default, addressing a bunch of other
tickets listed in #23559.
Metric changes:
* CoOpt_Singleton: +4% compiler allocations: we just get more
specialisations
* info_table_map_perf: -20% decrease in compiler allocations.
This is caused by using -fno-specialise in ExactPrint.hs
Without that change we get a 4x blow-up in compile time;
see !15058 for details

rts: Fix a deadlock with eventlog flush interval and RTS shutdown
The ghc_ticker thread attempts to flush at the eventlog tick interval, this requires
waiting to take all capabilities.
At the same time, the main thread is shutting down, the schedule is
stopped and then we wait for the ticker thread to finish.
Therefore we are deadlocked.
The solution is to use `newBoundTask/exitMyTask`, so that flushing can
cooperate with the scheduler shutdown.

SimpleOpt: don't subst in pushCoercionIntoLambda
It was noticed in #26589 that the change in 15b311be was incorrect:
the simple optimiser carries two different substitution-like pieces of
information: 'soe_subst' (from InVar to OutExpr) and 'soe_inl'
(from InId to InExpr). It is thus incorrect to have 'pushCoercionIntoLambda'
apply the substitution from 'soe_subst' while discarding 'soe_inl'
entirely, which is what was done in 15b311be.
Instead, we change back pushCoercionIntoLambda to take an InScopeSet,
and optimise the lambda before calling 'pushCoercionIntoLambda' to avoid
mixing InExpr with OutExpr, or mixing two InExpr with different
environments. We can then call 'soeZapSubst' without problems.

Use 'OsPath' in getModificationTimeIfExists
This part of the compiler is quite hot during recompilation checking in

Namespace-specified wildcards in import/export lists (#25901)
This change adds support for top-level namespace-specified wildcards
`type ..` and `data ..` to import and export lists.
Examples:
import M (type ..) -- imports all type and class constructors from M
import M (data ..) -- imports all data constructors and terms from M
module M (type .., f) where
-- exports all type and class constructors defined in M,
-- plus the function 'f'
The primary intended usage of this feature is in combination with module
aliases, allowing namespace disambiguation:
import Data.Proxy as T (type ..) -- T.Proxy is unambiguously the type constructor
import Data.Proxy as D (data ..) -- D.Proxy is unambiguously the data constructor
The patch accounts for the interactions of wildcards with:
* Imports with `hiding` clauses
* Import warnings -Wunused-imports, -Wdodgy-imports
* Export warnings -Wduplicate-exports, -Wdodgy-exports
Summary of the changes:
1. Move the NamespaceSpecifier type from GHC.Hs.Binds to GHC.Hs.Basic,
making it possible to use it in more places in the AST.
2. Extend the AST (type: IE) with a representation of `..`, `type ..`,
and `data ..` (constructor: IEWholeNamespace). Per the proposal, the
plain `..` is always rejected with a dedicated error message.
3. Extend the grammar in Parser.y with productions for `..`, `type ..`,
and `data ..` in both import and export lists.
4. Implement wildcard imports by updating the `filterImports` function
in GHC.Rename.Names; the logic for IEWholeNamespace is roughly
modeled after the Nothing (no explicit import list) case.
5. Implement wildcard exports by updating the `exports_from_avail`
function in GHC.Tc.Gen.Export; the logic for IEWholeNamespace is
closely modeled after the IEModuleContents case.
6. Refactor and extend diagnostics to report the new warnings and
errors. See PsErrPlainWildcardImport, DodgyImportsWildcard,
PsErrPlainWildcardExport, DodgyExportsWildcard,
TcRnDupeWildcardExport.
Note that this patch is specifically about top-level import/export
items. Subordinate import/export items are left unchanged.

rts: Handle overflow of ELF section header string table
If the section header string table is stored in a section greater
than or equal to SHN_LORESERVE (0xff00), the 16-bit field e_shstrndx
in the ELF header does not contain the section number, but rather
an overflow value SHN_XINDEX (0xffff) indicating that we need to look
elsewhere.
This fixes the linker by not using e_shstrndx directly but calling
elf_shstrndx, which correctly handles the SHN_XINDEX value.

Also corrects the warning for `tail` to refer to `Data.List.uncons` (like the existing warning for `head`).
In module `Settings.Warnings`, applies `-Wno-x-partial` to the `filepath`, and `parsec` packages (outside GHC's repository).
Also bumps submodules.

devx: minor fixes for compile_flags.txt
This patch includes minor fixes for compile_flags.txt to improve
developer experience when using clangd as language server to hack on
RTS C sources:
- Ensure `-fPIC` is passed and `__PIC__` is defined, to be coherent
with `-DDYNAMIC` and ensure the `__PIC__` guarded code paths are
indexed
- Add the missing `-DRtsWay` definition, otherwise a few source files
like `RtsUtils.c` and `Trace.c` would produce clangd errors
