The relative URLs were a workaround to let most contributors fork from
Github due to a weakness in the haskell.org server.

This workaround is no longer needed. And relative submodule URLs are
an impediment to forking which makes contributions harder than they
should be.

The URLs are chosen to clone from https, because this makes sure that
anybody, even not a registered Gitlab user, can clone a fork
recursively.

`parallel` is used in exactly one place in the GHC tree: the T2317 test.
It seems almost by accident that it is a submodule; libraries needed
only for tests should net be included as submodules (see `QuickCheck`,
`async`, `haskell98`, `regex-compat`, `utf8-string`, `vector` and more
for examples).

T2317 will now get run only when `parallel` is installed instead of
`parallel` being required for the testsuite to run.

Summary:
Implement the "Embrace Type :: Type" GHC proposal,
.../ghc-proposals/blob/master/proposals/0020-no-type-in-type.rst

GHC 8.0 included a major change to GHC's type system: the Type :: Type
axiom. Though casual users were protected from this by hiding its
features behind the -XTypeInType extension, all programs written in GHC
8+ have the axiom behind the scenes. In order to preserve backward
compatibility, various legacy features were left unchanged. For example,
with -XDataKinds but not -XTypeInType, GADTs could not be used in types.
Now these restrictions are lifted and -XTypeInType becomes a redundant
flag that will be eventually deprecated.

* Incorporate the features currently in -XTypeInType into the
  -XPolyKinds and -XDataKinds extensions.
* Introduce a new extension -XStarIsType to control how to parse * in
  code and whether to print it in error messages.

This reverts commit 8d4bce42.

This is rather annoying. I'd prefer to have a stable release to
use. However libffi-3.2.1 has been released November 12, 2014, and
libffi-4 is TBD. See also https://github.com/libffi/libffi/issues/296

The core reason for this change is that llvm changed the supported
assembly to unified syntax, which libffi-3.2.1 does not use, and hence
fails to compile for arm with llvm. For refence, see the following
issue: https://github.com/libffi/libffi/issues/191

The submodule repository contains the latest version of the GMP source
distribution (6.1.2) with the doc/ subdirectory removed, as described
in gmp/ghc.mk. Rather than applying the old patch from gmp/tarball/patch
I moved its contents into gmp/gmpsrc.patch, canceling a patch related to
memory management there. Experimentally, the PIC-related patch for OS X
is still necessary.

The upgrade to GMP 6.1.2 fixes #7655.

Test Plan:
Built on OS X with in-tree gmp and tested that the command
`ghc -e 'length (show (2^(5*10^6) :: Integer))'` no longer segfaults.

This implements the ideas originally put forward in
"System FC with Explicit Kind Equality" (ICFP'13).

There are several noteworthy changes with this patch:
 * We now have casts in types. These change the kind
   of a type. See new constructor `CastTy`.

 * All types and all constructors can be promoted.
   This includes GADT constructors. GADT pattern matches
   take place in type family equations. In Core,
   types can now be applied to coercions via the
   `CoercionTy` constructor.

 * Coercions can now be heterogeneous, relating types
   of different kinds. A coercion proving `t1 :: k1 ~ t2 :: k2`
   proves both that `t1` and `t2` are the same and also that
   `k1` and `k2` are the same.

 * The `Coercion` type has been significantly enhanced.
   The documentation in `docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf` reflects
   the new reality.

 * The type of `*` is now `*`. No more `BOX`.

 * Users can write explicit kind variables in their code,
   anywhere they can write type variables. For backward compatibility,
   automatic inference of kind-variable binding is still permitted.

 * The new extension `TypeInType` turns on the new user-facing
   features.

 * Type families and synonyms are now promoted to kinds. This causes
   trouble with parsing `*`, leading to the somewhat awkward new
   `HsAppsTy` constructor for `HsType`. This is dispatched with in
   the renamer, where the kind `*` can be told apart from a
   type-level multiplication operator. Without `-XTypeInType` the
   old behavior persists. With `-XTypeInType`, you need to import
   `Data.Kind` to get `*`, also known as `Type`.

 * The kind-checking algorithms in TcHsType have been significantly
   rewritten to allow for enhanced kinds.

 * The new features are still quite experimental and may be in flux.

 * TODO: Several open tickets: #11195, #11196, #11197, #11198, #11203.

 * TODO: Update user manual.

Updates Haddock submodule.

It shouldn't have been possible to reference an external
Git submodule not hosted on git.haskell.org as we can't otherwise
ensure gitlink integrity. But it turns out the
validation hook scripts in place didn't reject
020375d1, so here we are...

This commit changes ghc.git to use our own fork/copy of
https://github.com/bgamari/arcanist-external-json-linter
hosted on git.haskell.org

This should catch mistakes like
a703fbce.

Adds an arcanist-external-json-linter submodule, which should eventually
be mirrored on haskell.org resources.

This will affect commands such as

   git submodule update --remote utils/haddock

to use `ghc-head` instead of the default `master` branch

Also set `submodule.<name>.ignore=none` explicitly for the recently
converted submodules, as those are not supposed to have untracked/unignored
files lying around.

Specifically, the following sub-repos/modules are converted:

 - libffi-tarballs
 - libraries/array
 - libraries/deepseq
 - libraries/directory
 - libraries/dph
 - libraries/filepath
 - libraries/haskell2010
 - libraries/haskell98
 - libraries/hoopl
 - libraries/hpc
 - libraries/old-locale
 - libraries/old-time
 - libraries/parallel
 - libraries/process
 - libraries/stm
 - libraries/unix
 - nofib
 - utils/hsc2hs

N.B. ghc-tarballs is not converted as it will probably be handled
     differently in the future.

Previously, the `http://`-protocol part was hardcoded in the URLs, causing
the initial clone process to fall back to `http://` even when the ghc.git repo
was cloned via one of the other 3 supported transport protocols.

This is slightly related to #8545, as it will make it possible to e.g.

    git clone --recursive git://git.haskell.org/ghc



and clone ghc.git including all submodules in one go (i.e. w/o `sync-all`),
and w/o falling back to a different (hardwired) Git transport protocol for
the submodules.

The GHC build creates files there that are not part of the project’s
.gitignore, and clutter up "git status" in ghc/. With this patch, these
changes are ignored; modifications to existing files in the submodule
repositories are still reported.

...as the new `git.haskell.org` CNAME has been activated
(see also GitolitePlan and #8121 for more details)

This changes the `/libraries/<name>.git/` suffix in the urls
to `/packages/<name>.git`. This is a minor preparation step
helping the Gitolite transition (see #8121).

Looks like I forgot to make it one in the original conversion

This bring the time package into line with how we handle other
packages.
