Hadrian: Use gcc to compile C files directly where reasonable.
Motivation
Currently hadrian compiles C files by invoking GHC, which itself invokes gcc.
This is especially true for the RTS which many invocations of the sort:
| Run Ghc CompileCWithGhc Stage1: rts/HsFFI.c => _quick/stage1/rts/build/c/HsFFI.debug_o
This works, but causes overhead when modifying GHC. Any minor change to GHC results in a change of the ghc binary.
This means we have to rebuild all of the RTS since one of it's dependencies has changed.
Proposal
I assume many (most?) of the C files in the RTS could be compiled by gcc (or clang) directly.
So we should compile those by invoking gcc directly which avoids rebuilding them when making changes to GHC.
