Fix array and cleanup conversion primops (#19026)
The first change makes the array ones use the proper fixed-size types, which also means that just like before, they can be used without explicit conversions with the boxed sized types. (Before, it was Int# / Word# on both sides, now it is fixed sized on both sides). For the second change, don't use "extend" or "narrow" in some of the user-facing primops names for conversions. - Names like `narrowInt32#` are misleading when `Int` is 32-bits. - Names like `extendInt64#` are flat-out wrong when `Int is 32-bits. - `narrow{Int,Word}<N>#` however map a type to itself, and so don't suffer from this problem. They are left as-is. These changes are batched together because Alex happend to use the array ops. We can only use released versions of Alex at this time, sadly, and I don't want to have to have a release thatwon't work for the final GHC 9.2. So by combining these we get all the changes for Alex done at once. Bump hackage state in a few places, and also make that workflow slightly easier for the future. Bump minimum Alex version Bump Cabal, array, bytestring, containers, text, and binary submodules
