ucd2haskell tool used streamly library which version in cabal was out of date. It is updated to the latest version at hackage with deprecated parts rewritten.

Also following fixes were applied to existing code in suppose that from its last run the code structure was changed and now it was required to be up to date with actual folder structures:
1. Ghc module path environment got a suffix with `src`.
2. Generated code got
2.1 `GHC.Internal` prefix for `Data.*`.
2.2 `GHC.Unicode.Internal` swapped on `GHC.Internal.Unicode` according to actual structure.

Here we move a good deal of the implementation of `base` into a new
package, `ghc-internal` such that it can be evolved independently
from the user-visible interfaces of `base`.

While we want to isolate implementation from interfaces, naturally, we
would like to avoid turning `base` into a mere set of module re-exports.
However, this is a non-trivial undertaking for a variety of reasons:

 * `base` contains numerous known-key and wired-in things, requiring
   corresponding changes in the compiler

 * `base` contains a significant amount of C code and corresponding
   autoconf logic, which is very fragile and difficult to break apart

 * `base` has numerous import cycles, which are currently dealt with via
   carefully balanced `hs-boot` files

 * We must not break existing users

To accomplish this migration, I tried the following approaches:

* [Split-GHC.Base]: Break apart the GHC.Base knot to allow incremental
  migration of modules into ghc-internal: this knot is simply too
  intertwined to be easily pulled apart, especially given the rather
  tricky import cycles that it contains)

* [Move-Core]: Moving the "core" connected component of base (roughly
  150 modules) into ghc-internal. While the Haskell side of this seems
  tractable, the C dependencies are very subtle to break apart.

* [Move-Incrementally]:

  1. Move all of base into ghc-internal
  2. Examine the module structure and begin moving obvious modules (e.g.
     leaves of the import graph) back into base
  3. Examine the modules remaining in ghc-internal, refactor as necessary
     to facilitate further moves
  4. Go to (2) iterate until the cost/benefit of further moves is
     insufficient to justify continuing
  5. Rename the modules moved into ghc-internal to ensure that they don't
     overlap with those in base
  6. For each module moved into ghc-internal, add a shim module to base
     with the declarations which should be exposed and any requisite
     Haddocks (thus guaranteeing that base will be insulated from changes
     in the export lists of modules in ghc-internal

Here I am using the [Move-Incrementally] approach, which is empirically
the least painful of the unpleasant options above

generalCategory contains a huge literal string but is marked INLINE,
this will duplicate the string into any use site of generalCategory. In
particular generalCategory is used in functions like isSpace and the
literal gets inlined into this function which makes it massive.

These predicates use the standard Unicode case properties and are more intuitive than isUpper and isLower.

Switch to a pure Haskell implementation of base:GHC.Unicode, based on the implementation of the package unicode-data (https://github.com/composewell/unicode-data/).

Approved by CLC as per https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/59#issuecomment-1132106691.

- Remove current Unicode cbits.
- Add generator for Unicode property files from Unicode Character Database.
- Generate internal modules.
- Update GHC.Unicode.
- Add unicode003 test for general categories and case mappings.
- Add Python scripts to check 'base' Unicode tests outputs and characters properties.
