testsuite: mark T17912 as fragile on Windows
T17912 is still fragile on Windows, it sometimes unexpectedly pass in
CI. This especially strains our already scarce Windows CI runner
resources. Mark it as fragile on Windows for the time being.

Status check for the HsType~HsExpr refactoring (#25121)
Add a test case to track the status of a refactoring project within GHC
whose goal is to arrive at the following declaration:
type HsType = HsExpr
The rationale for this is to increase code reuse between the term- and
type-level code in the compiler front-end (AST, parser, renamer, type checker).
The status report is saved to testsuite/tests/ghc-api/T25121_status.stdout
and provides useful insights into what needs to happen to make progress on
the ticket.

Record `LinkableUsage` instead of `Linkable` in `LoaderState`
Retaining a ByteCode `Linkable` after it has been loaded retains its
`UnlinkedBCO`, keeping it alive for the remainder of the program.
This starts accumulating a lot of `UnlinkedBCO` and memory over time.
However, the `Linkable` is merely used to later record its usage in
`mkObjectUsage`, which is used for recompilation checking.
However, this is incorrect, as the interface file and bytecode objects
could be in different states, e.g. the interface changes, but the
bytecode library hasn't changed so we don't need to recompile and vice
versa.
By computing a `Fingerprint` for the `ModuleByteCode`, and recording it
in the `LinkableUsage`, we know precisely whether the `ByteCode` object
on disk is outdated.
Thus, parts of this commit just makes sure that we efficiently compute a
`Fingerprint` for `ModuleByteCode` and store it in the on-disk
representation of `ModuleByteCode`.
We change the `LoaderState` to retain `LinkableUsage`, which is smaller
representation of a `Linkable`. This allows us to free the unneeded
fields of `Linkable` after linking them.
We declare the following memory invariants that this commit implements:
* No `LinkablePart` should be retained from `LoaderState`.
* `Linkable`s should be unloaded after they have been loaded.
These invariants are unfortunately tricky to automatically uphold, so we
are simply documenting our assumptions for now.
We introduce the `linkable-space` test which makes sure that after
loading, no `DotGBC` or `UnlinkedBCO` is retained.
-------------------------
Metric Increase:
MultiLayerModulesTH_OneShot
-------------------------
We allocate a bit more, but the peak number of bytes doesn't change.
While a bit unfortunate, accepting the metric increase.
We add multiple new performance measurements where we were able to
observe the desired memory invariants. Further, we add regression tests
to validate that the recompilation checker behaves more correct than
before.

Eliminate dictionary-passing in ListMap operations
Mark the ListMap helpers 'INLINABLE' so importing modules can specialise
the 'TrieMap (ListMap m)' methods and avoid recursive dictionary-passing.
See Note [Making ListMap operations specialisable].

testsuite: fix testdir cleanup logic on Windows
testdir cleanup is unreliable on Windows (#13162) and despite existing
hacks in the driver, new failure mode has occurred. This patch makes
it print the warning and carry on when failed to clean up a testdir,
instead of reporting a spurious framework failure. See added comment
for detailed explanation.

Remove signal-based ticker implementations
Fixes issue #27073
All supported platforms should work with the pthreads + nanosleep based
ticker implementation. This avoids all the problems with using signals.
In practice, all supported platforms were probably using the non-signal
tickers already, which is probably why we do not get lots of reports
about deadlocks and other weirdness: we were definately using functions
that are not async signal safe in the tick handler (such as fflush to
flussh the eventlog).
Only Solaris was explicitly using the timer_create ticker impl, and even
Solaris could probably use the pthreads one (if anyone cared: Solaris is
no longer a Teir 3 supported platform).
Plausibly the only supported platform that this will change will be AIX,
which should now use the pthreads impl.
