Hadrian: Add option to generate .hie files for stage1 libraries

The +hie_files flavour transformer can be enabled to produce hie files
for stage1 libraries. The hie files are produced in the
"extra-compilation-artifacts" folder and copied into the resulting
bindist.

At the moment the hie files are not produced for the release flavour,
they add about 170M to the final bindist.

Towards #16901

Improve redundant constraints for instance decls

Addresses #25992, which showed that the default methods
of an instance decl could make GHC fail to report redundant
constraints.

Figuring out how to do this led me to refactor the computation
of redundant constraints.  See the entirely rewritten

   Note [Tracking redundant constraints]

in GHC.Tc.Solver.Solve

Refactor the treatment of nested Template Haskell splices

* The difference between a normal splice, a quasiquoter and implicit
splice caused by lifting is stored in the AST after renaming.

* Information that the renamer learns about splices is stored in the
relevant splice extension points (XUntypedSpliceExpr, XQuasiQuote).

* Normal splices and quasi quotes record the flavour of splice
  (exp/pat/dec etc)

* Implicit lifting stores information about why the lift was attempted,
  so if it fails, that can be reported to the user.

* After renaming, the decision taken to attempt to implicitly lift a
variable is stored in the `XXUntypedSplice` extension field in the
`HsImplicitLiftSplice` constructor.

* Since all the information is stored in the AST, in `HsUntypedSplice`,
  the type of `PendingRnSplice` now just stores a `HsUntypedSplice`.

* Error messages since the original program can be easily
  printed, this is noticeable in the case of implicit lifting.
* The user-written syntax is directly type-checked. Before, some
  desugaring took place in the
* Fixes .hie files to work better with nested splices (nested splices
  are not indexed)
* The location of the quoter in a quasiquote is now located, so error
  messages will precisely point to it (and again, it is indexed by hie
  files)

In the future, the typechecked AST should also retain information about
the splices and the specific desugaring being left to the desugarer.

Also, `runRnSplice` should call `tcUntypedSplice`, otherwise the
typechecking logic is duplicated (see the `QQError` and `QQTopError`
tests for a difference caused by this).

Fix EPT enforcement when mixing unboxed tuples and non-tuples

The code was assuming that an alternative cannot be returning a normal
datacon and an unboxed tuple at the same time. However, as seen in #26107,
this can happen when using a GADT to refine the representation type.

The solution is just to conservatively return TagDunno.

MachRegs.h: Don't define NO_ARG_REGS when a XMM register is defined

On i386, MAX_REAL_VANILLA_REG is 1, but MAX_REAL_XMM_REG is 4.
If we define NO_ARG_REGS on i386, programs that use SIMD vectors may segfault.

Closes #25985

A couple of notes on the BROKEN_TESTS field:

* This fixes the segfault from T25062_V16.
* The failure from T22187_run was fixed in an earlier commit (see #25561),
  but BROKEN_TESTS was missed at that time.  Now should be a good time to
  mark it fixed.

Improve error messages when implicit lifting fails

This patch concerns programs which automatically try to fix level errors
by inserting `Lift`. For example:

```
foo x = [| x |]
~>
foo x = [| $(lift x) |]
```

Before, there were two problems with the message.

1. (#26031), the location of the error was reported as the whole
   quotation.
2. (#26035), the message just mentions there is no Lift instance, but
   gives no indicate why the user program needed a Lift instance in the
   first place.

This problem is especially bad when you disable
`ImplicitStagePersistence`, so you just end up with a confusing "No
instance for" message rather than an error message about levels

This patch fixes both these issues.

Firstly, `PendingRnSplice` differentiates between a user-written splice
and an implicit lift. Then, the Lift instance is precisely requested
with a specific origin in the typechecker. If the instance fails to be
solved, the message is reported using the `TcRnBadlyLevelled`
constructor (like a normal level error).

Fixes #26031, #26035

compiler: fix GHC.SysTools.Ar archive member size writing logic

This patch fixes a long-standing bug in `GHC.SysTools.Ar` that emits
the wrong archive member size in each archive header. It should encode
the exact length of the member payload, excluding any padding byte,
otherwise malformed archive that extracts a broken object with an
extra trailing byte could be created.

Apart from the in-tree `T26120` test, I've also created an out-of-tree
testsuite at https://github.com/TerrorJack/ghc-ar-quickcheck that
contains QuickCheck roundtrip tests for `GHC.SysTools.Ar`. With this
fix, simple roundtrip tests and `writeGNUAr`/GNU `ar` roundtrip test
passes. There might be more bugs lurking in here, but this patch is
still a critical bugfix already.

Fixes #26120 #22586.

Deprecate -Wdata-kinds-tc, make DataKinds issues in typechecker become errors

!11314 introduced the `-Wdata-kinds-tc` warning as part of a fix for #22141.
This was a temporary stopgap measure to allow users who were accidentally
relying on code which needed the `DataKinds` extension in order to typecheck
without having to explicitly enable the extension.

Now that some amount of time has passed, this patch deprecates
`-Wdata-kinds-tc` and upgrades any `DataKinds`-related issues in the
typechecker (which were previously warnings) into errors.

Visible forall in GADTs (#25127)

Add support for visible dependent quantification `forall a -> t` in
types of data constructors, e.g.

  data KindVal a where
    K :: forall k.
         forall (a::k) ->   -- now allowed!
         k ->
         KindVal a

For details, see docs/users_guide/exts/required_type_arguments.rst,
which has gained a new subsection.

DataCon in compiler/GHC/Core/DataCon.hs
---------------------------------------
The main change in this patch is that DataCon, the Core representation
of a data constructor, now uses a different type to store user-written
type variable binders:

  - dcUserTyVarBinders :: [InvisTVBinder]
  + dcUserTyVarBinders :: [TyVarBinder]

where

  type TyVarBinder   = VarBndr TyVar ForAllTyFlag
  type InvisTVBinder = VarBndr TyVar Specificity

and

  data Specificity  = InferredSpec | SpecifiedSpec
  data ForAllTyFlag = Invisible Specificity | Required

This change necessitates some boring, mechanical changes scattered
throughout the diff:

    ... is now used in place of ...
   -----------------+---------------
    TyVarBinder     | InvisTVBinder
    IfaceForAllBndr | IfaceForAllSpecBndr
    Specified       | SpecifiedSpec
    Inferred        | InferredSpec
    mkForAllTys     | mkInvisForAllTys

  additionally,

    tyVarSpecToBinders      -- added or removed calls
    ifaceForAllSpecToBndrs  -- removed calls

Visibility casts in mkDataConRep
--------------------------------
Type abstractions in Core (/\a. e) always have type (forall a. t)
because coreTyLamForAllTyFlag = Specified. This is also true of data
constructor workers. So we may be faced with the following:

  data con worker:  (forall a.   blah)
  data con wrapper: (forall a -> blah)

In this case the wrapper must use a visibility cast (e |> ForAllCo ...)
with appropriately set fco_vis{L,R}. Relevant functions:

  mkDataConRep   in compiler/GHC/Types/Id/Make.hs
  dataConUserTyVarBindersNeedWrapper in compiler/GHC/Core/DataCon.hs
  mkForAllVisCos in compiler/GHC/Core/Coercion.hs
  mkCoreTyLams   in compiler/GHC/Core/Make.hs
  mkWpForAllCast in compiler/GHC/Tc/Types/Evidence.hs

More specifically:

- dataConUserTyVarBindersNeedWrapper has been updated to answer "yes"
  if there are visible foralls in the type of the data constructor.

- mkDataConRep now uses mkCoreTyLams to generate the big lambda
  abstractions (/\a b c. e) in the data con wrapper.

- mkCoreTyLams is a variant of mkCoreLams that applies visibility casts
  as needed. It similar in purpose to the pre-existing mkWpForAllCast,
  so the common bits have been factored out into mkForAllVisCos.

ConDecl in compiler/Language/Haskell/Syntax/Decls.hs
----------------------------------------------------
The surface syntax representation of a data constructor declaration is
ConDecl. In accordance with the proposal, only GADT syntax is extended
with support for visible forall, so we are interested in ConDeclGADT.

ConDeclGADT's field con_bndrs has been renamed to con_outer_bndrs
and is now accompanied by con_inner_bndrs:

  con_outer_bndrs :: XRec pass (HsOuterSigTyVarBndrs pass)
  con_inner_bndrs :: [HsForAllTelescope pass]

Visible foralls always end up in con_inner_bndrs. The outer binders are
stored and processed separately to support implicit quantification and
the forall-or-nothing rule, a design established by HsSigType.

A side effect of this change is that even in absence of visible foralls,
GHC now permits multiple invisible foralls, e.g.

  data T a where { MkT :: forall a b. forall c d. ... -> T a }

But of course, this is done in service of making at least some of these
foralls visible. The entire compiler front-end has been updated to deal
with con_inner_bndrs. See the following modified or added functions:

  Parser:
      mkGadtDecl     in compiler/GHC/Parser/PostProcess.hs
      splitLHsGadtTy in compiler/GHC/Hs/Type.hs
  Pretty-printer:
      pprConDecl           in compiler/GHC/Hs/Decls.hs
      pprHsForAllTelescope in compiler/GHC/Hs/Type.hs
  Renamer:
      rnConDecl                 in compiler/GHC/Rename/Module.hs
      bindHsForAllTelescopes    in compiler/GHC/Rename/HsType.hs
      extractHsForAllTelescopes in compiler/GHC/Rename/HsType.hs
  Type checker:
      tcConDecl           in compiler/GHC/Tc/TyCl.hs
      tcGadtConTyVarBndrs in compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/HsType.hs

Template Haskell
----------------
The TH AST is left unchanged for the moment to avoid breakage. An
attempt to quote or reify a data constructor declaration with visible
forall in its type will result an error:

  data ThRejectionReason       -- in GHC/HsToCore/Errors/Types.hs
    = ...
    | ThDataConVisibleForall   -- new error constructor

However, as noted in the previous section, GHC now permits multiple
invisible foralls, and TH was updated accordingly. Updated code:

      repC         in compiler/GHC/HsToCore/Quote.hs
      reifyDataCon in compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/Splice.hs
      ppr @Con     in libraries/ghc-boot-th/GHC/Boot/TH/Ppr.hs

Pattern matching
----------------
Everything described above concerns data constructor declarations, but
what about their use sites? Now it is trickier to type check a pattern
match fn(Con a b c)=... because we can no longer assume that a,b,c are
all value arguments. Indeed, some or all of them may very well turn out
to be required type arguments.

To that end, see the changes to:

      tcDataConPat   in compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/Pat.hs
      splitConTyArgs in compiler/GHC/Tc/Gen/Pat.hs

and the new helpers split_con_ty_args, zip_pats_bndrs.

This is also the reason the TcRnTooManyTyArgsInConPattern error
constructor has been removed. The new code emits TcRnArityMismatch
or TcRnIllegalInvisibleTypePattern.

Summary
-------
DataCon, ConDecl, as well as all related functions have been updated to
support required type arguments in data constructors.

Test cases:
  HieGadtConSigs   GadtConSigs_th_dump1   GadtConSigs_th_pprint1
  T25127_data      T25127_data_inst       T25127_infix
  T25127_newtype   T25127_fail_th_quote   T25127_fail_arity

With the fix for #23675, all toolchain tools were moved to the

`settings-use-distro-mingw` accesses and delete `ToolchainSetting`.

Teach `:reload` about multiple home units

`:reload` needs to lookup the `ModuleName` and must not assume the given
`ModuleName` is in the current `HomeUnit`.

We add a new utility function which allows us to find a `HomeUnitModule`
instead of a `Module`.

Further, we introduce the `GhciCommandError` type which can be used to
abort the execution of a GHCi command.
This error is caught and printed in a human readable fashion.

Implement `-fno-load-initial-targets` flag

We add the new flag `-fno-load-initial-targets` which doesn't load all `Target`s
immediately but only computes the module graph for all `Target`s.
The user can then decide to load modules from that module graph using
the syntax:

    ghci> :reload <Mod>

This will load everything in the module graph up to `Mod`.

The user can return to the initial state by using the builtin target
`none` to unload all modules.

    ghci> :reload none

Is in principle identical to starting a new session with the
`-fno-load-initial-targets` flag.

The `-fno-load-initial-targets` flag allows for faster startup time of GHCi when a
user has lots of `Target`s.

We additionally extend the `:reload` command to accept multiple
`ModuleName`s. For example:

    ghci> :reload <Mod1> <Mod2>

Loads all modules up to the modules `Mod1` and `Mod2`.

- when using TemplateHaskell we want to link against exactly the package

Consider `PromotedDataCon` in `tyConStupidTheta`

Haddock checks data declarations for the stupid theta so as not to

panic. This commit extends `tyConStupidTheta` so that it returns an
empty list for `PromotedDataCon`s. This decision was guided by the fact
that type data declarations never have data type contexts (see (R1) in
Note [Type data declarations]).
