As pointed out in #13945, some filesystems only allow allow exclusive
locks if the fd being locked was opened for write access. This causes
ghc-pkg to fail as it first attempts to open and exclusively lock its
lockfile in read-only mode to accomodate package databases for which we
lack write permissions (e.g. global package databases).
Instead, we now try read-write mode first, falling back to read-only
mode if this fails.

The main goal is to easily allow the inline-c project (and
similar projects such as inline-java) to emit C/C++ files to
be compiled and linked with the current module.
Moreover, `addCStub` is removed, since it's quite fragile. Most
notably, the C stubs end up in the file generated by
`CodeOutput.outputForeignStubs`, which is tuned towards
generating a file for stubs coming from `capi` and Haskell-to-C
exports.

This at long last realizes the ideas for type-indexed Typeable discussed in A
Reflection on Types (#11011). The general sketch of the project is described on
the Wiki (Typeable/BenGamari). The general idea is that we are adding a type
index to `TypeRep`,
data TypeRep (a :: k)
This index allows the typechecker to reason about the type represented by the `TypeRep`.
This index representation mechanism is exposed as `Type.Reflection`, which also provides
a number of patterns for inspecting `TypeRep`s,
```lang=haskell
pattern TRFun :: forall k (fun :: k). ()
=> forall (r1 :: RuntimeRep) (r2 :: RuntimeRep)
(arg :: TYPE r1) (res :: TYPE r2).
(k ~ Type, fun ~~ (arg -> res))
=> TypeRep arg
-> TypeRep res
-> TypeRep fun
pattern TRApp :: forall k2 (t :: k2). ()
=> forall k1 (a :: k1 -> k2) (b :: k1). (t ~ a b)
=> TypeRep a -> TypeRep b -> TypeRep t
-- | Pattern match on a type constructor.
pattern TRCon :: forall k (a :: k). TyCon -> TypeRep a
-- | Pattern match on a type constructor including its instantiated kind
-- variables.
pattern TRCon' :: forall k (a :: k). TyCon -> [SomeTypeRep] -> TypeRep a
```
In addition, we give the user access to the kind of a `TypeRep` (#10343),
typeRepKind :: TypeRep (a :: k) -> TypeRep k
Moreover, all of this plays nicely with 8.2's levity polymorphism, including the
newly levity polymorphic (->) type constructor.
Library changes
---------------
The primary change here is the introduction of a Type.Reflection module to base.
This module provides access to the new type-indexed TypeRep introduced in this
patch. We also continue to provide the unindexed Data.Typeable interface, which
is simply a type synonym for the existentially quantified SomeTypeRep,
data SomeTypeRep where SomeTypeRep :: TypeRep a -> SomeTypeRep
Naturally, this change also touched Data.Dynamic, which can now export the
Dynamic data constructor. Moreover, I removed a blanket reexport of
Data.Typeable from Data.Dynamic (which itself doesn't even import Data.Typeable
now).
We also add a kind heterogeneous type equality type, (:~~:), to
Data.Type.Equality.
Implementation
--------------
The implementation strategy is described in Note [Grand plan for Typeable] in
TcTypeable. None of it was difficult, but it did exercise a number of parts of
the new levity polymorphism story which had not yet been exercised, which took
some sorting out.
The rough idea is that we augment the TyCon produced for each type constructor
with information about the constructor's kind (which we call a KindRep). This
allows us to reconstruct the monomorphic result kind of an particular
instantiation of a type constructor given its kind arguments.
Unfortunately all of this takes a fair amount of work to generate and send
through the compilation pipeline. In particular, the KindReps can unfortunately
get quite large. Moreover, the simplifier will float out various pieces of them,
resulting in numerous top-level bindings. Consequently we mark the KindRep
bindings as noinline, ensuring that the float-outs don't make it into the
interface file. This is important since there is generally little benefit to
inlining KindReps and they would otherwise strongly affect compiler performance.
Performance
-----------
Initially I was hoping to also clear up the remaining holes in Typeable's
coverage by adding support for both unboxed tuples (#12409) and unboxed sums
(#13276). While the former was fairly straightforward, the latter ended up being
quite difficult: while the implementation can support them easily, enabling this
support causes thousands of Typeable bindings to be emitted to the GHC.Types as
each arity-N sum tycon brings with it N promoted datacons, each of which has a
KindRep whose size which itself scales with N. Doing this was simply too
expensive to be practical; consequently I've disabled support for the time
being.
Even after disabling sums this change regresses compiler performance far more
than I would like. In particular there are several testcases in the testsuite
which consist mostly of types which regress by over 30% in compiler allocations.
These include (considering the "bytes allocated" metric),
* T1969: +10%
* T10858: +23%
* T3294: +19%
* T5631: +41%
* T6048: +23%
* T9675: +20%
* T9872a: +5.2%
* T9872d: +12%
* T9233: +10%
* T10370: +34%
* T12425: +30%
* T12234: +16%
* 13035: +17%
* T4029: +6.1%
I've spent quite some time chasing down the source of this regression and while
I was able to make som improvements, I think this approach of generating
Typeable bindings at time of type definition is doomed to give us unnecessarily
large compile-time overhead.
In the future I think we should consider moving some of all of the Typeable
binding generation logic back to the solver (where it was prior to
91c6b1f54aea658b0056caec45655475897f1972). I've opened #13261 documenting this
proposal.

Summary:
This is a complete fix based off of
ed7af26606b3a605a4511065ca1a43b1c0f3b51d for handling
shadowing and out-of-order -package-db flags simultaneously.
The general strategy is we first put all databases together,
overriding packages as necessary. Once this is done, we successfully
prune out broken packages, including packages which depend on a package
whose ABI differs from the ABI we need.
Our check gracefully degrades in the absence of abi-depends, as
we only check deps which are recorded in abi-depends.

Summary:
Build systems / package managers want to be able to control the file
layout of installed libraries. In general they may want/need to be able
to put the static libraries and dynamic libraries in different places.
The ghc-pkg library regisrtation needs to be able to handle this.
This is already possible in principle by listing both a static lib dir
and a dynamic lib dir in the library-dirs field (indeed some previous
versions of Cabal did this for shared libs on ELF platforms).
The downside of listing both dirs is twofold. There is a lack of
precision, if we're not careful with naming then we could end up
picking up the wrong library. The more immediate problem however is
that if we list both directories then both directories get included
into the ELF and Mach-O shared object runtime search paths. On ELF this
merely slows down loading of shared libs (affecting prog startup time).
On the latest OSX versions this provokes a much more serious problem:
that there is a rather low limit on the total size of the section
containing the runtime search path (and lib names and related) and thus
listing any unnecessary directories wastes the limited space.
So the solution in this patch is fairly straightforward: split the
static and dynamic library search paths in the ghc-pkg db and its use
within ghc. This is a traditional solution: pkg-config has the same
static / dynamic split (though it describes in in terms of private and
public, but it translates into different behaviour for static and
dynamic linking).
Indeed it would make perfect sense to also have a static/dynamic split
for the list of the libraries to use i.e. to have dynamic variants of
the hs-libraries and extra-libraries fields. These are not immediately
required so this patch does not add it, but it is a reasonable
direction to follow.
To handle compatibility, if the new dynamic-library-dirs field is not
specified then its value is taken from the library-dirs field.
Contains Cabal submodule update.
Test Plan:
Run ./validate
Get christiaanb and carter to test it on OSX Sierra, in combination
with Cabal/cabal-install changes to the default file layout for

It turns out that we don't really need to be able to
extract a ComponentId from UnitId, except in one case.
So compress UnitId into a single FastString.
The one case where we do need the ComponentId is when
we are compiling an instantiated version of a package;
we need the ComponentId to look up the indefinite
version of this package from the database. So now we
just pass it in as an argument -this-component-id.
Also: ghc-pkg now no longer will unregister a package if
you register one with the same package name, if the
instantiations don't match.
Cabal submodule update which tracks the same data type
change.

This creates a new package, `ghc-boot-th`, to contain the `Extension`
type, which now lives in `GHC.LanguageExtension.Type`. This ensures that
the transitive dependency set of the `template-haskell` package remains
minimal.
The `GHC.LanguageExtensions.Type` module is also re-exported by
`ghc-boot`, which provides an orphan `binary` instance as well.

Previously, we had an 'OriginalModule' type in ghc-boot which
was basically identical to 'Module', and we had to do a bit of
gyrating to get it converted into the right form. This commit
introduces a new typeclass, 'DbModuleRep' which represents types
which we know how to serialize to and from the (now renamed) 'DbModule'
type.
The upshot is that we can just store 'Module's DIRECTLY in
the 'InstalledPackageInfo', no conversion needed.
I took the opportunity to clean up ghc-pkg to make its use of
the 'BinaryStringRep' classes more type safe.

A small cosmetic change, but we have to do a bit of work to
actually support it:
- Cabal submodule update, so that Cabal passes us
-this-unit-id when we ask for it. This includes
a Cabal renaming to be consistent with Unit ID, which
makes ghc-pkg a bit more scrutable.
- Build system is updated to use -this-unit-id rather than
-this-package-key, to avoid deprecation warnings. Needs
a version test so I resurrected the old test we had
(sorry rwbarton!)
- I've *undeprecated* -package-name, so that we are in the same
state as GHC 7.10, since the "correct" flag will have only
entered circulation in GHC 8.0.
- I removed -package-key. Since we didn't deprecate -package-id
I think this should not cause any problems for users; they
can just change their code to use -package-id.
- The package database is indexed by UNIT IDs, not component IDs.
I updated the naming here.
- I dropped the signatures field from ExposedModule; nothing
was using it, and instantiatedWith from the package database
field.
- ghc-pkg was updated to use unit ID nomenclature, I removed
the -package-key flags but I decided not to add any new flags
for now.

In order to simplify the task, the version munging logic has
been radically simplified:
Previously, in cases where the version contained dates as version components,
the build-system would munge the version of the stage1 ghc package before
registering the `ghc` package.
However, this hack was already questionable at the time of its introduction
(c.f. 7b45c46cbabe1288ea87bd9b94c57e010ed17e60).
Simplifying the build-systems by avoiding such hacks may also help the
shaking-up-ghc effort.
So now we simply munge directly via the `.cabal` files, which gives a simpler
picture, as now every stage is munged the same. Munging is only active when
the first patch-level version component is a date. So stable snapshots and release
candidates are unaffacted (as those have the date in the second patch-level
version component)

Summary:
(Apologies for the size of this patch, I couldn't make a smaller one
that was validate-clean and also made sense independently)
(Some of this code is derived from GHCJS.)
This commit adds support for running interpreted code (for GHCi and
TemplateHaskell) in a separate process. The functionality is
experimental, so for now it is off by default and enabled by the flag
-fexternal-interpreter.
Reaosns we want this:
* compiling Template Haskell code with -prof does not require
building the code without -prof first
* when GHC itself is profiled, it can interpret unprofiled code, and
the same applies to dynamic linking. We would no longer need to
force -dynamic-too with TemplateHaskell, and we can load ordinary
objects into a dynamically-linked GHCi (and vice versa).
* An unprofiled GHCi can load and run profiled code, which means it
can use the stack-trace functionality provided by profiling without
taking the performance hit on the compiler that profiling would
entail.
Amongst other things; see
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/RemoteGHCi for more details.
Notes on the implementation are in Note [Remote GHCi] in the new
module compiler/ghci/GHCi.hs. It probably needs more documenting,
feel free to suggest things I could elaborate on.
Things that are not currently implemented for -fexternal-interpreter:
* The GHCi debugger
* :set prog, :set args in GHCi
* `recover` in Template Haskell
* Redirecting stdin/stdout for the external process
These are all doable, I just wanted to get to a working validate-clean
patch first.
I also haven't done any benchmarking yet. I expect there to be slight hit
to link times for byte code and some penalty due to having to
serialize/deserialize TH syntax, but I don't expect it to be a serious
problem. There's also lots of low-hanging fruit in the byte code
generator/linker that we could exploit to speed things up.
Test Plan:
* validate
* I've run parts of the test suite with
EXTRA_HC_OPTS=-fexternal-interpreter, notably tests/ghci and tests/th.
There are a few failures due to the things not currently implemented
(see above).

This requires tweaking version constraints to allow this new major version
of `binary`.
Starting with binary-0.8, `Binary Version` is de-orphaned into `binary`.
This requires some minor adaptations to remove/hide orphan instances.

This exposes `template-haskell` functions for querying the language
extensions which are enabled when compiling a module,
- an `isExtEnabled` function to check whether an extension is enabled
- an `extsEnabled` function to obtain a full list of enabled extensions
To avoid code duplication this adds a `GHC.LanguageExtensions` module to
`ghc-boot` and moves `DynFlags.ExtensionFlag` into it. A happy
consequence of this is that the ungainly `DynFlags` lost around 500
lines. Moreover, flags corresponding to language extensions are now
clearly distinguished from other flags due to the `LangExt.*` prefix.
Updates haddock submodule.
This fixes #10820.

This commit contains a Cabal submodule update which unifies installed
package IDs and package keys under a single notion, a Component ID.
We update GHC to keep follow this unification. However, this commit
does NOT rename installed package ID to component ID and package key to
unit ID; the plan is to do that in a companion commit.
- Compiler info now has "Requires unified installed package IDs"
- 'exposed' is now expected to contain unit keys, not IPIDs.
- Shadowing is no more. We now just have a very simple strategy
to deal with duplicate unit keys in combined package databases:
if their ABIs are the same, use the latest one; otherwise error.
Package databases maintain the invariant that there can only
be one entry of a unit ID.

Trac #10796 exposes a way to make `template-haskell`'s `dataToQa` function
freak out if using a `Data` instance that produces a `Constr` (by means of
`toConstr`) using a function name instead of a data constructor name. While
such `Data` instances are somewhat questionable, they are nevertheless present
in popular libraries (e.g., `containers`), so we can at least make `dataToQa`
aware of their existence.
In order to properly distinguish strings which represent variables (as opposed
to data constructors), it was necessary to move functionality from `Lexeme` (in
`ghc`) to `GHC.Lexeme` in a new `ghc-boot` library (which was previously named
`bin-package-db`).
