Specialise: Improve specialisation by refactoring interestingDict

This MR addresses #26051, which concerns missed type-class specialisation.
The main payload of the MR is to completely refactor the key function
      `interestingDict` in GHC.Core.Opt.Specialise

The main change is that we now also look at the structure of the
dictionary we consider specializing on, rather than only the type.

See the big `Note [Interesting dictionary arguments]`

Treat tuple dictionaries uniformly; don't unbox them

See `Note [Do not unbox class dictionaries]` in DmdAnal.hs,
sep (DNB1).

This MR reverses the plan in #23398, which suggested a special case to
unbox tuple dictionaries in worker/wrapper.  But:

- This was the cause of a pile of complexity in the specialiser (#26158)

- Even with that complexity, specialision was still bad, very bad
  See https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/19747#note_626297

And it's entirely unnecessary!  Specialision works fine without
unboxing tuple dictionaries.

rts/nonmovingGC: remove n_free

We remove the nonmovingHeap.n_free variable.

We wanted this to track the length of nonmovingHeap.free.
But this isn't possible to do atomically.

When this isn't accurate we can get a segfault by going past the end of
the list.

Instead, we just count the length of the list when we grab it in
nonmovingPruneFreeSegment.

Resolves #26186

rts/LoadArchive: Handle string table entries terminated with /

llvm-ar appears to terminate string table entries with `/\n` [1]. This
matters in the case of thin archives, since the filename is used. In the
past this worked since `llvm-ar` would produce archives with "small"
filenames when possible. However, now it appears to always use the
string table.

Remove the `profile_id` parameter from various RTS functions.

Various RTS functions took a `profile_id` parameter, intended to be used to
distinguish parallel heap profile breakdowns (e.g., `-hT` and `-hi`). However,
this feature was never implemented and the `profile_id` parameter was set to 0
throughout the RTS. This commit removes the parameter but leaves the hardcoded
profile ID in the functions that emit the encoded eventlog events as to not
change the protocol.

The affected functions are `traceHeapProfBegin`, `postHeapProfBegin`,
`traceHeapProfSampleString`, `postHeapProfSampleString`,
`traceHeapProfSampleCostCentre`, and `postHeapProfSampleCostCentre`.

NCG/LA64: Support finer-grained DBAR hints

For LA664 and newer uarchs, they have made finer granularity hints
available:

    Bit4: ordering or completion (0: completion, 1: ordering)
    Bit3: barrier for previous read (0: true, 1: false)
    Bit2: barrier for previous write (0: true, 1: false)
    Bit1: barrier for succeeding read (0: true, 1: false)
    Bit0: barrier for succeeding write (0: true, 1: false)

And not affect the existing models because other hints are treated
as 'dbar 0' there.

Disable -fprof-late-overloaded-calls for join points.

Currently GHC considers cost centres as destructive to
join contexts. Or in other words this is not considered valid:

    join f x = ...
    in
              ... -> scc<tick> jmp

This makes the functionality of `-fprof-late-overloaded-calls` not feasible
for join points in general. We used to try to work around this by putting the
ticks on the rhs of the join point rather than around the jump. However beyond
the loss of accuracy this was broken for recursive join points as we ended up
with something like:

    rec-join f x = scc<tick> ... jmp f x

Which similarly is not valid as the tick once again destroys the tail call.
One might think we could limit ourselves to non-recursive tail calls and do
something clever like:

  join f x = scc<tick> ...
  in ... jmp f x

And sometimes this works! But sometimes the full rhs would look something like:

  join g x = ....
  join f x = scc<tick> ... -> jmp g x

Which, would again no longer be valid. I believe in the long run we can make
cost centre ticks non-destructive to join points. Or we could keep track of
where we are/are not allowed to insert a cost centre. But in the short term I will
simply disable the annotation of join calls under this flag.

Update interact docs to explain about buffering

We need to tell the user to set to the
appropriate buffer format.
Otherwise, this function may get randomly stuck,
or just behave confusingly.

issue: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/26131

NB, I'm running this with cabal *NOT* ghci. ghci messes with buffering anyway.

```haskell
interaction :: String -> String
interaction "jappie" = "hi"
interaction "jakob" = "hello"
interaction x = "unkown input: " <> x

main :: IO ()
main = interact  interaction
```
so in my input (prefixed by `>`) I get:

```
> jappie
unkown input: jappie
```

we confirmed later this was due to lack of \n matching.
Anyway movnig on to more unexpected stuff:

```haskell
main :: IO ()
main = do
  interact  (concatMap interaction . lines)
```

get's stuck forever.
actually `^D` (ctrl+d) unstucks it and runs all input as expected.
for example you can get:
```
> sdfkds
> fakdsf
unkown input: sdfkdsunkown input: fakdsf
```

This program works!
```haskell
interaction :: String -> String
interaction "jappie" = "hi \n"
interaction "jakob" = "hello \n"
interaction x = "unkown input: " <> x <> "\n"

main :: IO ()
main = do
  interact  (concatMap interaction . lines)
```
the reason is that linebuffering is set for both in and output by default.
so lines eats the input lines, and all the \n postfixes make sure the buffer
is put out.

EPA: Update exact printing based on GHC 9.14 tests

As a result of migrating the GHC ghc-9.14 branch tests to
ghc-exactprint in
https://github.com/alanz/ghc-exactprint/tree/ghc-9.14, a couple of
discrepancies were picked up

- The opening paren for a DefaultDecl was printed in the wrong place
- The import declaration level specifiers were not printed.

This commit adds those fixes, and some tests for them.
The tests brought to light that the ImportDecl ppr instance had not
been updated for level specifiers, so it updates that too.

template haskell: use a precise condition when implicitly lifting

Implicit lifting corrects a level error by replacing references to `x`
with `$(lift x)`, therefore you can use a level `n` binding at level `n
+ 1`, if it can be lifted.

Therefore, we now have a precise check that the use level is 1 more than
the bind level.

Before this bug was not observable as you only had 0 and 1 contexts but
it is easily evident when using explicit level imports.

CprAnal: Detect recursive newtypes (#25944)

While `cprTransformDataConWork` handles recursive data con workers, it
did not detect the case when a newtype is responsible for the recursion.
This is now detected in the `Cast` case of `cprAnal`.

The same reproducer made it clear that `isRecDataCon` lacked congruent
handling for `AppTy` and `CastTy`, now fixed.

Furthermore, the new repro case T25944 triggered this bug via an
infinite loop in `cprFix`, caused by the infelicity in `isRecDataCon`.
While it should be much less likely to trigger such an infinite loop now
that `isRecDataCon` has been fixed, I made sure to abort the loop after
10 iterations and emitting a warning instead.

Fixes #25944.

STM: don't create a transaction in the rhs of catchRetry# (#26028)

We don't need to create a transaction for the rhs of (catchRetry#)
because contrary to the lhs we don't need to abort it on retry. Moreover
it is particularly harmful if we have code such as (#26028):

  let cN = readTVar vN >> retry
      tree = c1 `orElse` (c2 `orElse` (c3 `orElse` ...))
  atomically tree

Because it will stack transactions for the rhss and the read-sets of all
the transactions will be iteratively merged in O(n^2) after the
execution of the most nested retry.
