Refactor -dynamic-too handling
1) Don't modify DynFlags (too much) for -dynamic-too: now when we generate dynamic outputs for "-dynamic-too", we only set "dynamicNow" boolean field in DynFlags instead of modifying several other fields. These fields now have accessors that take dynamicNow into account. 2) Use DynamicTooState ADT to represent -dynamic-too state. It's much clearer than the undocumented "DynamicTooConditional" that was used before. As a result, we can finally remove the hscs_iface_dflags field in HscRecomp. There was a comment on this field saying: "FIXME (osa): I don't understand why this is necessary, but I spent almost two days trying to figure this out and I couldn't .. perhaps someone who understands this code better will remove this later." I don't fully understand the details, but it was needed because of the changes made to the DynFlags for -dynamic-too. There is still something very dubious in GHC.Iface.Recomp: we have to disable the "dynamicNow" flag at some point for some Backpack's "heinous hack" to continue to work. It may be because interfaces for indefinite units are always non-dynamic, or because we mix and match dynamic and non-dynamic interfaces (#9176), or something else, who knows?
