ghc-internal: avoid depending on GHC.Internal.Control.Monad.Fix
This module contains the definition of MonadFix, since we want an
instance for IO, that instance requires a lot of machinery and we want
to avoid an orphan instance, this will naturally be quite high up in the
dependency graph.
So we want to avoid other modules depending on it as far as possible.
On Windows, the IO manager depends on the RTSFlags type, which
transtively depends on MonadFix. We refactor things to avoid this
dependency, which would have caused a regression.
Resolves #26875
Metric Decrease:

Refine the imports of `System.IO.OS`
Commit 68bd08055594b8cbf6148a72d108786deb6c12a1 replaced the
`GHC.Internal.Data.Bool` import by a `GHC.Internal.Base` import.
However, while the `GHC.Internal.Data.Bool` import was conditional and
partial, the `GHC.Internal.Base` import is unconditional and total. As a
result, the import list is not tuned to import only the necessary bits
anymore, and furthermore GHC emits a lot of warnings about redundant
imports.
This commit makes the `GHC.Internal.Base` import conditional and partial
in the same way that the `GHC.Internal.Data.Bool` import was.
