Remove the call to hoistFlag from processCmdLineP
This call was undesirable because it was causing a reconstruction
of the list of flag processors.
Even relying on list fusion would not be sufficient because we want
to replace the list with a data structure with faster lookups to
address #25763.
The removal is done in two moves:
* We move CmdLineP to CmdLine.hs
* Then we move the effect of hoisting to processArgs via a new function
hoistEwM

Do not create duplicate flag processors for the -W flag
This makes simpler implementing the command line parser with a trie map
holding flag processors. If we were to allow duplicate flag processors
for any flag, the trie map would need to be a multimap.

Replace the list of flag processors with a trie map in `processArgs`
Previously `GHC.Driver.CmdLine.findArg` was called for each
command-line argument, doing a linear search on the list of flag
processors each time. This was somewhat costly as the list of flag
processor has near 2000 elements.
A lookup with a trie map is faster in general, but the speed up is
only noticeable when calling `GHC.Driver.CmdLine.processArgs` sufficient
times, so the amount of lookups piles up. This could happen in large
projects with many units each having many dependencies. If only a
module needs to be recompiled, the user still needs to wait for all of
the flag parsing to complete.
The benchmark at testsuite/tests/perf/compiler/cmdline-parser shows a
10x speed up when using the trie.
The trie map is implemented in `GHC.Data.StringTrie`.
The design is explained in Note [Processing command line argument fast]
in GHC.Driver.Session.
The commit also:
* adds two property-based tests for trie map operations,
* adds a benchmark of the command line parser, and
* renames the predicate `arg_ok` to `valid_flag_suffix` to decide what
flag processor should be used when there are multiple matching
prefixes on a flag.
Fixes #25763.

Change the C types of hs_{bitrev,bswap}{16,32} to match the Haskell types
bitReverse{16,32}# and byteSwap{16,32}# have the type
Word# -> Word#, but their C correspondents took and
returned StgWord{16,32}.
The mismatch on bitReverse16# led to the problem reported
in #27299. Although no similar issue is reported for
bitReverse32# and byteSwap{16,32}#, it seemed wise to
change them proactively.
This commit fixes the mismatch by changing the C type.

Don't lose instances from shadowed imported modules with the same name
When we look for instances below the current module, we need to check
the unit id as well when we check for whether the module is the current
module, otherwise we ignore modules we import that have the same name as
the import module.
Adds regression test.

Re-implement the home unit closure check
Compared to the previous implementation, the new one has the following
advantages:
* It is correct.
- It distinguishes between units that have the same unit ID but
different ABI hashes.
- When `-hide-all-packages` is not used, it considers as home unit
dependencies also units that are made implicitly available
because they are in the package database.
* It seems to be faster in usual settings.
- In particular, it does not have a preparation phase in which it
merges the dependency information from all home units, so that
its running time does not grow linearly with the size of the
package database in normal Cabal scenarios.
* It is (hopefully) clearer.
* It is better documented.

Remove erroneous GHC flag in `hadrian-multi`
The flag was `-Werror=-Wno-error=incomplete-record-selectors`. Its
purpose was to permit incomplete record selectors, but because of the
illegal combination of `-Werror=` and `-Wno-error` it was ignored,
without any negative consequences.

EPA: Add specific layout field to AnnList
Up to now AnnList has effectively served to represent lists of things
having layout, regardless of whether they do or not.
In Haskell, layout is optional in many places, as there is also an
alternative syntax using braces and semi-colons, which is free-form.
This commit introduces AnnListLayout, a data structure capturing this
distinction.
It is deliberately set up similarly to EpLayout, so that these two can
be merged in time.
The transition is done mechanically, where AnnListBraces is not used
yet, the original Nothing case maps to AnnListNoLayout, and the Just
case to AnnListLayout.
Later commits will fine tune these against the actual parser layout.

Add regression test for #7803
Commit 2effe18ab5, first shipped with GHC 8.2.1, fixed #7803 "Superclass
methods are left unspecialized".
This change turns the example from the ticket description into a regression
test, checking that foo1 is fully specialised at Double, with no calls to the
overloaded exp5Tail.
Closes #7803

RTS: Update flag parsing/handling:
Using 0 as argument to any of these flags now resets the flags setting to default:
- ``-n0`` disables nursery chunking.
- ``-K0`` (or a bare ``-K``) removes the stack size limit.
- ``-M0`` removes the heap size limit.
- ``-H0`` resets the suggested heap size, including the nursery scaling set by ``-H``.
- ``-AL0`` makes the large object allocation limit follow ``-A`` again.
GC Generations are now limited to 64.
-n larger than -A now emits a warning and disables chunking.

EPA: Use EpaLocation in EpVirtualBraces
Haddock processing uses EpLayout.EpVirtualBraces to record the current
layout column, for allocating haddock comments correctly.
For exact printing, we need the line as well as the col, so we know
how many lines to skip when the indented code block starts.
This commit updates EpLayout.EpVirtualBraces so that it carries an
EpaLocation instead of just the Int column, to allow it to be used for
both purposes.
It is a simple mechanical change, with no other impact, but it allows
us to use EpLayout instead of AnnListLayout in AnnList, in the next
commit in this series.

The function is deprecated for 12 years and has a default implementation,

Extend the `TrustOverlay` for wired-in units
The TrustOverlay only contained the `UnitId` of all on-disk units.
However, wired-in units are referred to by their wired-in unit id, which
is not the same as the on-disk unit id.
Thus, trust checks for wired-in units failed because the lookup was
using the wired-in unit, which wasn't present in the `TrustOverlay`.
We fix #27834, by copying the trust info for wired-in unit ids.
