To correctly perform a linking hack for Windows we need to link with the
RTS GHC is currently using. We used to query the RTS ways via the
"settings" file but it is fragile (#18651). The hack hasn't been fixed
to take into account all the ways (Tracing) and it makes linking of GHC
with another RTS more difficult (we need to link with another RTS and to
regenerate the settings file).
So this patch uses the ways reported by the RTS itself
(GHC.Platform.Ways.hostWays) instead of the "settings" file.

In b592bd98ff25730bbe3c13d6f62a427df8c78e28 we started using
-dead_strip_dylib on macOS when lining dynamic libraries and binaries.
The underlying reason being the Load Command Size Limit in macOS
Sierra (10.14) and later.
GHC will produce @rpath/libHS... dependency entries together with a
corresponding RPATH entry pointing to the location of the libHS...
library. Thus for every library we produce two Load Commands. One to
specify the dependent library, and one with the path where to find it.
This makes relocating libraries and binaries easier, as we just need to
update the RPATH entry with the install_name_tool. The dynamic linker
will then subsitute each @rpath with the RPATH entries it finds in the
libraries load commands or the environement, when looking up @rpath
relative libraries.
-dead_strip_dylibs intructs the linker to drop unused libraries. This in
turn help us reduce the number of referenced libraries, and subsequently
the size of the load commands. This however does not remove the RPATH
entries. Subsequently we can end up (in extreme cases) with only a
single @rpath/libHS... entry, but 100s or more RPATH entries in the Load
Commands.
This patch rectifies this (slighly unorthodox) by passing *no* -rpath
arguments to the linker at link time, but -headerpad 8000. The
headerpad argument is in hexadecimal and the maxium 32k of the load
command size. This tells the linker to pad the load command section
enough for us to inject the RPATHs later. We then proceed to link the
library or binary with -dead_strip_dylibs, and *after* the linking
inspect the library to find the left over (non-dead-stripped)
dependencies (using otool). We find the corresponding RPATHs for each
@rpath relative dependency, and inject them into the library or binary
using the install_name_tool. Thus achieving a deadstripped dylib (and
rpaths) build product.
We can not do this in GHC, without starting to reimplement a dynamic
linker as we do not know which symbols and subsequently libraries are
necessary.

The fix to #17962 ended up regressing on Windows as it failed to
replicate the logic responsible for overriding the toolchain paths on
Windows. This resulted in a hard-coded path to a directory that likely
doesn't exist on the user's system (#18550).

- put panic related functions into GHC.Utils.Panic
- put trace related functions using DynFlags in GHC.Driver.Ppr
One step closer making Outputable fully independent of DynFlags.

Previously to merge a set of object files we would invoke the linker as
usual, adding -r to the command-line. However, this can result in
non-sensical command-lines which causes lld to balk (#17962).
To avoid this we introduce a new tool setting into GHC, -pgmlm, which is
the linker which we use to merge object files.

Previously it was in ghc-boot so that ghc-pkg could use it. However it
wasn't necessary because ghc-pkg only uses a subset of it: reading
target arch and OS from the settings file. This is now done via
GHC.Platform.ArchOS (was called PlatformMini before).

* Represent backends with a `Backend` datatype in GHC.Driver.Backend
* Don't detect the default backend to use for the target platform at
compile time in Hadrian/make but at runtime. It makes "Settings"
simpler and it is a step toward making GHC multi-target.
* The latter change also fixes hadrian which has not been updated to
take into account that the NCG now supports AIX and PPC64 (cf
df26b95559fd467abc0a3a4151127c95cb5011b9 and
d3c1dda60d0ec07fc7f593bfd83ec9457dfa7984)
* Also we don't treat iOS specifically anymore (cf
cb4878ffd18a3c70f98bdbb413cd3c4d1f054e1f)

tablesNextToCode is a platform setting and doesn't belong into DynFlags
(#17957). Doing this is also a prerequisite to fix #14335 where we deal
with two platforms (target and host) that may have different platform
settings.

Thanks to ghc-bignum, the compiler can be simplified:
* Types and constructors of Integer and Natural can be wired-in. It
means that we don't have to query them from interfaces. It also means
that numeric literals don't have to carry their type with them.
* The same code is used whatever ghc-bignum backend is enabled. In
particular, conversion of bignum literals into final Core expressions
is now much more straightforward. Bignum closure inspection too.
* GHC itself doesn't depend on any integer-* package anymore
* The `integerLibrary` setting is gone.

Avoid direct use of DynFlags to know if symbols must be prefixed by an
underscore.
