arm64 ncg: The big subword truncation fix.
A set of slightly related fixes to arm subword handling:
Bitmask immediates:
Don't produce overflowing assembly literals.
There is still another bug here that causes us to miss some valid
literals but we will fix that later.
Improve subword truncation handling:
We now use a small set of helpers to truncate `Register` values rather
than truncating immediate `Reg` values which greatly simplifies the code
structure. This fixes a great many bugs to do with sign/zero extending subwords
or the lack thereof.
We now establish the invariant that subword values are zero-extended at
every site at which they come into "scope" of the ncg, and rely on the
invariant throughout rather than pessimistically inserting redundant
extensions in a hodgepodge manner at the use sites of these values.
This fixes at least the bugs described in issues #27533, #27430
#27537, #27538, #27539, and #27550. But likely more bugs yet not
found.
Subword ffi results:
Apply truncations when calling functions returning
subword values.
genCondJump:
Don't sign extend signed values in the input register as
it might map to a local variable, corrupting the value stored within.
Fix subword store/load instructions.:
We used to read those at 32bit width even for smaller values possibly
resulting in invalid memory access. Now we construct the suffix for
subword variants based on the instruction format for these.

Add `rethrowSTM` and improve STM-related documentation
Adding `rethrowSTM` resolves #26758.
The implementation of `rethrowSTM` is completely analogous to the one of
`rethrowIO`.
The following is established for the documentation of `throwSTM` and
`catchSTM`:
* Both operations are directly described as analogs of their `IO`
counterparts.
* There is no reference to `throw` in the documentation of `throwSTM`,
because, although such a reference is great in the documentation of
`throwIO`, it is somewhat out of place in the documentation of
`throwSTM`.
* Instead of repeating part of `throwIO`’s documentation, the
documentation of `throwSTM` just recommends using `throwSTM` instead
of `throw` and references the corresponding arguments in the
documentation of `throwIO`.

Never make an absent filler for a constraint type
mkAbsentFiller used isTerminatingType to decide, but that is not enough.
Consider
class Eq a => UC a where {}
let u :: UC Int -- UC Int is a "non-terminating type"
u = error "Absent"
let e :: Eq Int -- Eq Int is a "terminating type"
e = $p1UC u
We clearly must not make a filler for `e`, because we speculatively
evaluate it. But speculatively evaluating `e` forces `u`, so we must not
make one for `u` either.
Asking isDictTy instead is not enough either, because it does not catch a
constraint hidden behind an unreduced type family application:
type family F a :: Constraint
type instance F W = TC W
a :: F W => Int -> Int -- (F W) argument is absent
Oops! Entered absent arg Arg: irred
Type: F W
So play safe and use isPredTy: never make an absent filler for any
constraint-kinded type.

An abstract TyCon may hide a unary class
A class declared in an hs-boot file is an AbstractTyCon inside the
module loop, and compiling the real declaration may reveal it to be a
UnaryClassTyCon.
- isTerminatingType returned True for such AbstractTyCons
- IfaceToCore set the unary flag to False in the DFunId
So we could end up speculating bottom dictionaries because inside a module
loop we see an UnaryClassTyCon as an AbstractTyCon
Use isTerminatingTyCon, which returns False for an abstract TyCon.
The Bool in DFunId is now a cache for isTerminatingTyCon, set in

Specialise: don't replace dead args with absent fillers
specHeader decides an argument is dead by calling isDeadBinder on a binder of
the /optimised RHS/, then applies the filler to the /stable unfolding/
template instead. The two may differ, so the argument can be dead in
the RHS and not in the template.
The specialised function's unfolding then has an absent filler, and any call
site that inlines it evaluates the error thunk.
Dropping dead args in the specialiser is rarely worth it, to quote Simon,
"The later worker/wrapper pass will pick up the dead arg later if it is really dead. Keeps the specialiser simpler."
So instead of trying to check if the arg really is dead in the stable unfolding,
just drop the logic for dropping dead args in the specialiser altogeher.

CorePrep: don't speculate a call across an hs-boot edge
We take care not to evaluate things that might be bottom, like a
looping dictionary group, but our analysis is defeated by boot files.
We only track recursion within a module, so two dictionaries that

we might speculate them.
Any recursion we cannot see must cross an hs-boot edge, so refuse to
speculate calls that cross one.

testsuite: Migrate perf tests off collect_compiler_stats('all')
The 'all' metric argument applies a single tolerance to bytes
allocated, max_bytes_used and peak_megabytes_allocated, although their
noise profiles are incompatible (#27653): allocations are nearly
deterministic, residency needs 10-20%, and peak is quantized to 1 MB.
Any single tolerance is too tight for one metric or too slack for
another. This migrates the remaining users of 'all' (and of the 'all'
default) to explicit per-metric collection, ahead of removing 'all'
from the driver.
peak_megabytes_allocated is dropped everywhere: its 1 MB granularity
makes tight relative windows meaningless (#27613), and it is sensitive
to GC timing. In #27489 it drifted by -5.3% while max_bytes_used moved
by less than 0.1%. Where a test guards a memory property,
max_bytes_used covers it at byte granularity.
Where the motivating ticket was about compile-time memory
(T11545, T15304, T26425), residency remains gated via max_bytes_used,
now with a residency-appropriate tolerance.
max_bytes_used is dropped where residency was only ever an accident of
'all':
* T15630, T15630a, T20261: the underlying tickets (#15630, #20261)
contain no memory data at all. One is a simplifier-ticks blowup and
the other is stated entirely in allocation numbers, so the 20%
window never had teeth.
* T21839c: #21839's measurements show residency essentially flat
(+0.16%) while allocations moved +7%, so allocations are the
discriminating metric. They are already gated at 1% via
collect_compiler_runtime. The ghc/max gate had previously broken CI
spuriously (9fd11585eb widened it from 1% to 10% for that reason).
Allocation tolerances are tightened to the testsuite's conventional 2%
where 'all' previously left them at 10-20%.

testsuite: Make the deviation argument of collect_stats mandatory
Almost every caller passes an explicit tolerance matched to the
metric's noise profile, and the silent 20% default is far slacker than
'bytes allocated' merits. Only two tests relied on it. They now state
their tolerance explicitly:
large-project gets 10%, in line with other large compile-time tests.
T9848 gets 2%: its metric is byte-for-byte deterministic across CI
jobs and platforms of a given test_env, has drifted only about 2.5%
since 2015, and the fusion failure it guards against would show up as
a roughly +30000% jump.

LazyFieldAnnotations extension (4762a8bf30f) from GHC proposal 752,
which makes `~` annotations available for this purpose.
Deciding which fields to report requires their levity, so the check
runs after typechecking. To keep the noise down, the diagnostic is

Parentheses in prefix GADT constructors (#27423)
Updated `splitLHsGadtTy` to allow looking
through the parentheses for inner binders. General example
of a code pattern that's allowed now:
data S a where
MkS :: (forall a. S a)
That should work now with any combination of nested
foralls and parentheses.
We don't perform parenthesis unwrapping for record
GADT constructors in accordance with GHC Proposal #402.
To this end `con_inner_bndrs` no longer stores plain forall
telescopes: `[HsForAllTelescope pass]` is replaced with
`[LHsGadtTelescope pass]`, a new `HsArg`-style type whose
`HsGadtForAll` holds an inner telescope and whose `HsGadtPar`
holds a pair of parentheses. The parentheses carry no meaning
for renaming or type checking; the only reason to record them
is exact-printing.
Updated `pprConDecl` to improve the `parse == parse . ppr . parse`
property of GADT pretty-printing.
The pretty printer can now output code that's similar to this:
data T a where
MkT1 :: (forall a. T a)
MkT2 :: forall . forall a. T a
These are special cases of inner forall binders
for prefix GADT constructors, when we have either
implicit or zero explicit outer binders.

X86 NCG: use btr/bts/btc for single-bit operations
Previously the Cmm patterns
x & ~(1 << i)
x | (1 << i)
x ^ (1 << i)
compiled to mov/shl/not/and-style sequences of 3-4 instructions. Now
they compile to a single btr, bts or btc, matching what C compilers
produce.
When the bit index is a literal, constant folding has already collapsed
these patterns into ones with a literal mask, such as
x & 0xfffffeffffffffff for x & ~(1 << 40). Such masks are now also
compiled to a bit-test instruction when they don't fit in an imm32 and
would otherwise have to be loaded into a register first.
For a variable bit index, this applies only when the shift is unchecked
(uncheckedShiftL#, Data.Bits.unsafeShiftL): the bounds-checked shiftL
used by e.g. the default clearBit/setBit/complementBit implementations
wraps the shift in a bounds mask that this optimisation does not see
through. With a literal index, the bounds mask is constant-folded away,
so the checked operations benefit too.
See Note [Bit-test instructions] in GHC.CmmToAsm.X86.CodeGen.

Preserve tick ordering in 'tickTickedExpr'
'GHC.Core.Utils.tickTickedExpr' tries to combine a tick 't1' into an
existing stack of ticks 't2s'. There are two situations:
1. 't1' is subsumed by a tick in 't2s': drop it.
2. A tick in 't2s' is subsumed by 't1', say 't2'.
This commit ensures that in case (2) we keep 't1' on the outside instead
of replacing 't2' at its position in the stack. This avoids re-ordering
