GHC Trac Issues: #8040

Here we introduce compatibility wrappers for HasCallStack constraints.
This is necessary as we must support GHC 7.10.1 which lacks sane call
stack support. We also introduce another constraint synonym,
HasDebugCallStack, which only provides a call stack when DEBUG is set.

Summary:
* getNonClobberedReg instead of getSomeReg, because the reg needs to
  survive across t_code
* Use a new reg for the table offset calculation instead of clobbering
  the reg returned by expr (this was the bug affecting #12433)

GHC Trac Issues: #12433

Triggered by the discussion on Trac #12466, this patch
makes GHC less aggressive about reporting an error when
there are insoluble Givens.

Being so agressive was making some libraries fail to
compile, and is arguably wrong in at least some cases.
See the discussion on the ticket.

Several test now pass when they failed before; see
the files-modified list for this patch.

Summary:
Standalone-derived `Ix` instances would panic on GADTs with exactly
one constructor, since the list of fields was being passed to a function that
uses `foldl1` in order to generate an implementation for `inRange`. This adds a
simple check that makes `inRange` be `True` whenever a product type has no
fields.

Fixes #12583.

You can now just use `mkMatchGroup`.

Summary:
D2461 seemed to (inadvertently, I think) add the
`-flocal-ghci-history` flag to the list of `defaultFlags` that are enabled
automatically. As a result, every invocation of `ghci` caused a local GHCi
history to be saved to the current directory, which probably shouldn't be the
default.

Test Plan:
Run `ghci`, observe the lack of a `.ghci_history` file in your
working directory

GHC Trac Issues: #9089

Summary:
The external interpreter is launched by calling
'System.Process.createProcess' with a 'CreateProcess' parameter.

The current value for this has the 'std_in', 'std_out' and 'std_err'
fields use the default of 'Inherit', meaning that the remote interpreter
shares the stdio with the original ghc/ghci process.

This patch introduces a new hook to the DynFlags, which has an
opportunity to override the 'CreateProcess' fields, launch the process,
and retrieve the stdio handles actually used.

So if a ghci external interpreter session is launched from the GHC API
the stdio can be redirected if required, which is useful for tooling/IDE
integration.

It's a complementary change to
    a48de37d
    restore -fmax-worker-args handling (Trac #11565)

I don't have a small example but I've noticed another
discrepancy when was profiling GHC for performance

    cmmExprNative :: ReferenceKind -> CmmExpr -> CmmOptM CmmExpr

was specialised by 'spec_one' down to a function with arity 159.
As a result 'perf record' pointed at it as at slowest
function in whole ghc library.

I've extended -fmax-worker-args effect to 'spec_one'
as it does the same worker/wrapper split to push
arguments to the heap.

The change decreases heap usage on a synth.bash benchmark
(Trac #9221) from 67G down to 64G (-4%). Benchmark runtime
decreased from 14.5 s down to 14.s (-7%).

Old regression is noticeable as:
- code bloat (requires stack reshuffling)
- compilation slowdown (more code to optimise/generate)
- and increased heap usage (DynFlags unboxing/reboxing?)

On a simple compile benchmark this change causes heap

According to the ABI specifications a minimal stack frame consists
of a header and a minimum size parameter save area. We reserve the
minimal size for each ABI.

On PowerPC 64-bil Linux and AIX the parameter save area can accomodate
up to eight parameters. So calls with eight parameters and fewer
can be done without allocating a new stack frame and deallocating
that stack frame after the call. On AIX one additional spill slot
is available on the stack.

Code size for all nofib benchmarks is 0.3 % smaller on powerpc64.

Previously interpreting the content of the .ghc.env files was done
after the step that loaded the available package dbs. This meant that
setting the package db flags was ineffective. This patch moves
interpreting the env files before loading of the package dbs.

Also, the package-db entries refer to files. Allow spaces in these file
names. Also treat as comments lines beginning with "--".

These are pretty minor fixes in a feature that up 'til now has been
essentially unused (witness no bug report about it), so there's very
low risk here. If we can get this into 8.0.2 then cabal can start
generating the .ghc.environment files, otherwise it cannot as it needs
the working package-db entries, to be able to refer to local package
dbs in the build tree (or cabal nix store).

Test Plan:
Manually create example .ghc.env files
run ghci; :show packages
Done this. It works.
