Significant clean-up of the handling of hi-boot files. Previously, when compling A.hs, we loaded A.hi-boot, and it went into the External Package Table. It was strange but it worked. This tidy up stops it going anywhere; it's just read in, and typechecked into a ModDetails. All this was on the way to improving the handling of instances in hs-boot files, something Chris Ryder wanted. I think they work quite sensibly now. If I've got all this right (have not had a chance to fully test it) we can merge it into STABLE.
