Change `Backend` type and remove direct dependencieswip/backend-as-record
With this change, `Backend` becomes an abstract type (there are no more exposed value constructors). Decisions that were formerly made by asking "is the current back end equal to (or different from) this named value constructor?" are now made by interrogating the back end about its properties, which are functions exported by `GHC.Driver.Backend`. There is a description of how to migrate code using `Backend` in the user guide. Clients using the GHC API can find a backdoor to access the Backend datatype in GHC.Driver.Backend.Internal. Bumps haddock submodule. Fixes #20927
