[GHC] #13686: Compile a few modules for profiling unconditionally

I would like to compile just enough libraries with profiling, unconditionally, to be able to compile any module with profiling as long as it satisfies approximately three conditions: 1. It uses `NoImplicitPrelude`. 2. It does not import any modules from a boot package. 3. It does not use `TemplateHaskell` (I'm not sure if this is necessary, but I wouldn't be surprised if it were). To make this work, I think we would need to compile at least `GHC.Types` and the `Data.Typeable.Internal` for profiling in all cases. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13686 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
