Consider `PromotedDataCon` in `tyConStupidTheta`
Haddock checks data declarations for the stupid theta so as not to
pretty-print them as empty contexts. Type data declarations end up as
`PromotedDataCon`s by the time Haddock performs this check, causing a
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]).
Fixes #25739.

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.

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

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.

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.

configure: Allow override of CrossCompiling
As noted in #26236, the current inference logic is a bit simplistic. In
particular, there are many cases (e.g. building for a new libc) where
the target and host triples may differ yet we are still able to run the
produced artifacts as native code.
Closes #26236.

Make unexpected LLVM versions a warning rather than an error.
Typically a newer LLVM version *will* work so erroring out if
a user uses a newer LLVM version is too aggressive.

rts: spin if we see a WHITEHOLE in messageBlackHole
When a BLACKHOLE gets cancelled in raiseAsync, we indirect to a THUNK.
GC can then shortcut this, replacing our BLACKHOLE with a fresh THUNK.
This THUNK is not guaranteed to have a valid indirectee field.
If at the same time, a message intended for the previous BLACKHOLE is
processed and concurrently we BLACKHOLE the THUNK, thus temporarily
turning it into a WHITEHOLE, we can get a segfault, since we look at the
undefined indirectee field of the THUNK
The fix is simple: spin if we see a WHITEHOLE, and it will soon be
replaced with a valid BLACKHOLE.
Resolves #26205

rts: ensure MessageBlackHole.link is always a valid closure
We turn a MessageBlackHole into an StgInd in wakeBlockingQueue().
Therefore it's important that the link field, which becomes the
indirection field, always points to a valid closure.
It's unclear whether it's currently possible for the previous behaviour
to lead to a crash, but it's good to be consistent about this invariant nonetheless.

ghc-internal: Fix naturalAndNot for NB/NS case
When the first argument to `naturalAndNot` is larger than a `Word` and the second is `Word`-sized, `naturalAndNot` will truncate the
result:
```
naturalAndNot ((2 ^ 65) .|. (2 ^ 3)) (2 ^ 3)
0
In contrast, `naturalAndNot` does not truncate when both arguments are larger than a `Word`, so this appears to be a bug.
Luckily, the fix is pretty easy: we just need to call `bigNatAndNotWord#` instead of truncating.
Fixes #26230
