Re-engineer the binder-swap transformation
The binder-swap transformation is implemented by the occurrence analyser -- see Note [Binder swap] in OccurAnal. However it had a very nasty corner in it, for the case where the case scrutinee was a GlobalId. This led to trouble and hacks, and ultimately to #16296. This patch re-engineers how the occurrence analyser implements the binder-swap, by actually carrying out a substitution rather than by adding a let-binding. It's all described in Note [The binder-swap substitution]. I did a few other things along the way * Fix a bug in StgCse, which could allow a loop breaker to be CSE'd away. See Note [Care with loop breakers] in StgCse. I think it can only show up if occurrence analyser sets up bad loop breakers, but still. * Better commenting in SimplUtils.prepareAlts * A little refactoring in CoreUnfold; nothing significant e.g. rename CoreUnfold.mkTopUnfolding to mkFinalUnfolding * Renamed CoreSyn.isFragileUnfolding to hasCoreUnfolding * Move mkRuleInfo to CoreFVs We observed respectively 4.6% and 5.9% allocation decreases for the following tests: Metric Decrease: T9961 haddock.base
