Unfortunately this will require more work; register allocation is
quite broken.
This reverts commit acd795583625401c5554f8e04ec7efca18814011.

This adds support for constructing vector types from Float#, Double# etc
and performing arithmetic operations on them

* simplifies registers to have GPR, Float and Double, by removing the SSE2 and X87 Constructors
* makes -msse2 assumed/default for x86 platforms, fixing a long standing nondeterminism in rounding
behavior in 32bit haskell code
* removes the 80bit floating point representation from the supported float sizes
* theres still 1 tiny bit of x87 support needed,
for handling float and double return values in FFI calls wrt the C ABI on x86_32,
but this one piece does not leak into the rest of NCG.
* Lots of code thats not been touched in a long time got deleted as a
consequence of all of this
all in all, this change paves the way towards a lot of future further
improvements in how GHC handles floating point computations, along with
making the native code gen more accessible to a larger pool of contributors.

This switches the compiler/ component to get compiled with
-XNoImplicitPrelude and a `import GhcPrelude` is inserted in all
modules.
This is motivated by the upcoming "Prelude" re-export of
`Semigroup((<>))` which would cause lots of name clashes in every
modulewhich imports also `Outputable`

In some cases, the layout of the LANGUAGE/OPTIONS_GHC lines has been
reorganized, while following the convention, to
- place `{-# LANGUAGE #-}` pragmas at the top of the source file, before
any `{-# OPTIONS_GHC #-}`-lines.
- Moreover, if the list of language extensions fit into a single
`{-# LANGUAGE ... -#}`-line (shorter than 80 characters), keep it on one
line. Otherwise split into `{-# LANGUAGE ... -#}`-lines for each
individual language extension. In both cases, try to keep the
enumeration alphabetically ordered.
(The latter layout is preferable as it's more diff-friendly)
While at it, this also replaces obsolete `{-# OPTIONS ... #-}` pragma
occurences by `{-# OPTIONS_GHC ... #-}` pragmas.

We only use it for "compiler" sources, i.e. not for libraries.
Many modules have a -fno-warn-tabs kludge for now.

The new flag -msse2 enables code generation for SSE2 on x86. It
results in substantially faster floating-point performance; the main
reason for doing this was that our x87 code generation is appallingly
bad, and since we plan to drop -fvia-C soon, we need a way to generate
half-decent floating-point code.
The catch is that SSE2 is only available on CPUs that support it (P4+,
AMD K8+). We'll have to think hard about whether we should enable it
by default for the libraries we ship. In the meantime, at least
-msse2 should be an acceptable replacement for "-fvia-C
-optc-ffast-math -fexcess-precision".
SSE2 also has the advantage of performing all operations at the
correct precision, so floating-point results are consistent with other
platforms.
I also tweaked the x87 code generation a bit while I was here, now
it's slighlty less bad than before.

variables
DO NOT MERGE TO GHC 6.12 branch
(Reason: interface file format change.)
The typechecker needs to instantiate otherwise-unconstraint type variables to
an appropriately-kinded constant type, but we didn't have a supply of
arbitrarily-kinded tycons for this purpose. Now we do.
The details are described in Note [Any types] in TysPrim. The
fundamental change is that there is a new sort of TyCon, namely
AnyTyCon, defined in TyCon.
Ter's a small change to interface-file binary format, because the new
AnyTyCons have to be serialised.
I tided up the handling of uniques a bit too, so that mkUnique is not
exported, so that we can see all the different name spaces in one module.

- nativeGen/Instruction defines a type class for a generic
instruction set. Each of the instruction sets we have,
X86, PPC and SPARC are instances of it.
- The register alloctors use this type class when they need
info about a certain register or instruction, such as
regUsage, mkSpillInstr, mkJumpInstr, patchRegs..
- nativeGen/Platform defines some data types enumerating
the architectures and operating systems supported by the
native code generator.
- DynFlags now keeps track of the current build platform, and
the PositionIndependentCode module uses this to decide what
to do instead of relying of #ifdefs.
- It's not totally retargetable yet. Some info info about the
build target is still hardwired, but I've tried to contain
most of it to a single module, TargetRegs.
- Moved the SPILL and RELOAD instructions into LiveInstr.
- Reg and RegClass now have their own modules, and are shared
across all architectures.
