Use new primops names for converting numbers to and from the native size

Use base-provided unsafe shifts

This makes the 9.2 prim changes less invasive. If we don't care about
de-optimizing ancient GHCs we can remove this module altogether.

Add rewrite rule to unfuse (text . drop)

The combination of (take . drop) should not be fused. This test makes
sure they are not by comparing the underlying array before and after
applying those functions.

See #301.

The combination of take . drop is commonly used as a substring
operation. The original take and drop functions both work by calculating
just a new offset and length. When fused, the streaming implementation
unnecessarily copies the data. This makes it much slower and more memory
consuming.

Migrating scripts to Python 3.

Regenerate .travis.yml, bump version to 1.2.4.1

- move source to src/
- Use symbolic links for package replicas

- There is no public API changes, only adopting to changes in
  dependencies
- Use `else` in `text.cabal`

This is needed for
[GHC#18279](ghc/ghc#18279), which
seeks to bump `ghc-prim`'s version number to 0.7.0.0 in order to
accommodate `GHC.Tuple.Unit` being renamed to `GHC.Tuple.Solo`. Since
`text` does not use `GHC.Tuple.Unit`, it is safe to simply bump
`text`'s upper version bounds on `ghc-prim`.

Python 2 is already sunset.
This patch upgrades existing scripts to Python 3.

GHC HEAD is planning to bump `template-haskell`'s major version
number to 2.17 soon (see
ghc/ghc#17645) to reflect the
[Overloaded Quotations](https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0246-overloaded-bracket.rst)
proposal being implemented. Before this can happen, `text`'s upper
version bounds on `template-haskell` need to be bumped to allow
`template-haskell-2.17`, as `text` is a boot library.

I have tested this change against GHC HEAD, and all test cases pass.
I cannot forsee any interaction between the changes in the Overloaded
Quotations proposal and the `text` library, as the only significant
changes involve the types of quoted TH expressions and combinators in
the `Language.Haskell.TH.Lib` library (neither of which `text` use).

`template-haskell-2.16.0.0` adds a `liftTyped` method to `Lift`,
which is like `lift` but returning `Q (TExp t)` instead of `Q Exp`.
`liftTyped` does not have a default implementation in terms of
`lift`, so it must be implemented explicitly in the `Lift Text`
instances that `text` defines. The implementations I chose are based
off of the general approach taken by `Language.Haskell.TH.Syntax`,
such as in this example:
https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/blob/4898df1cc25132dc9e2599d4fa4e1bbc9423cda5/libraries/template-haskell/Language/Haskell/TH/Syntax.hs#L716
