This commit modifies interface files so that *only* direct information
about modules and packages is stored in the interface file.
* Only direct module and direct package dependencies are stored in the
interface files.
* Trusted packages are now stored separately as they need to be checked
transitively.
* hs-boot files below the compiled module in the home module are stored
so that eps_is_boot can be calculated in one-shot mode without loading
all interface files in the home package.
* The transitive closure of signatures is stored separately
This is important for two reasons
* Less recompilation is needed, as motivated by #16885, a lot of
redundant compilation was triggered when adding new imports deep in the
module tree as all the parent interface files had to be redundantly
updated.
* Checking an interface file is cheaper because you don't have to
perform a transitive traversal to check the dependencies are up-to-date.
In the code, places where we would have used the transitive closure, we
instead compute the necessary transitive closure. The closure is not
computed very often, was already happening in checkDependencies, and
was already happening in getLinkDeps.

I was working on making DynFlags stateless (#17957), especially by
storing loaded plugins into HscEnv instead of DynFlags. It turned out to
be complicated because HscEnv is in GHC.Driver.Types but LoadedPlugin
isn't: it is in GHC.Driver.Plugins which depends on GHC.Driver.Types. I
didn't feel like introducing yet another hs-boot file to break the loop.
Additionally I remember that while we introduced the module hierarchy
(#13009) we talked about splitting GHC.Driver.Types because it contained
various unrelated types and functions, but we never executed. I didn't
feel like making GHC.Driver.Types bigger with more unrelated Plugins
related types, so finally I bit the bullet and split GHC.Driver.Types.
As a consequence this patch moves a lot of things. I've tried to put
them into appropriate modules but nothing is set in stone.
Several other things moved to avoid loops.
* Removed Binary instances from GHC.Utils.Binary for random compiler
things
* Moved Typeable Binary instances into GHC.Utils.Binary.Typeable: they
import a lot of things that users of GHC.Utils.Binary don't want to
depend on.
* put everything related to Units/Modules under GHC.Unit:
GHC.Unit.Finder, GHC.Unit.Module.{ModGuts,ModIface,Deps,etc.}
* Created several modules under GHC.Types: GHC.Types.Fixity, SourceText,
etc.
* Split GHC.Utils.Error (into GHC.Types.Error)
* Finally removed GHC.Driver.Types
Note that this patch doesn't put loaded plugins into HscEnv. It's left
for another patch.
