This commit removes module StgCmmGran which has only no-op functions.
According to comments in the module, it was used by GpH, but GpH
project seems to be dead for a couple of years now.

Except for CgUtils.fixStgRegisters that is used in the NCG and LLVM
backends, and should probably be moved somewhere else.

The main change here is that the Cmm parser now allows high-level cmm
code with argument-passing and function calls. For example:
foo ( gcptr a, bits32 b )
{
if (b > 0) {
// we can make tail calls passing arguments:
jump stg_ap_0_fast(a);
}
return (x,y);
}
More details on the new cmm syntax are in Note [Syntax of .cmm files]
in CmmParse.y.
The old syntax is still more-or-less supported for those occasional
code fragments that really need to explicitly manipulate the stack.
However there are a couple of differences: it is now obligatory to
give a list of live GlobalRegs on every jump, e.g.
jump %ENTRY_CODE(Sp(0)) [R1];
Again, more details in Note [Syntax of .cmm files].
I have rewritten most of the .cmm files in the RTS into the new
syntax, except for AutoApply.cmm which is generated by the genapply
program: this file could be generated in the new syntax instead and
would probably be better off for it, but I ran out of enthusiasm.
Some other changes in this batch:
- The PrimOp calling convention is gone, primops now use the ordinary
NativeNodeCall convention. This means that primops and "foreign
import prim" code must be written in high-level cmm, but they can
now take more than 10 arguments.
- CmmSink now does constant-folding (should fix #7219)
- .cmm files now go through the cmmPipeline, and as a result we
generate better code in many cases. All the object files generated
for the RTS .cmm files are now smaller. Performance should be
better too, but I haven't measured it yet.
- RET_DYN frames are removed from the RTS, lots of code goes away
- we now have some more canned GC points to cover unboxed-tuples with
2-4 pointers, which will reduce code size a little.

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

This changes the new code generator to make use of the Hoopl package
for dataflow analysis. Hoopl is a new boot package, and is maintained
in a separate upstream git repository (as usual, GHC has its own
lagging darcs mirror in http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/hoopl).
During this merge I squashed recent history into one patch. I tried
to rebase, but the history had some internal conflicts of its own
which made rebase extremely confusing, so I gave up. The history I
squashed was:
- Update new codegen to work with latest Hoopl
- Add some notes on new code gen to cmm-notes
- Enable Hoopl lag package.
- Add SPJ note to cmm-notes
- Improve GC calls on new code generator.
Work in this branch was done by:
- Milan Straka <fox@ucw.cz>
- John Dias <dias@cs.tufts.edu>
- David Terei <davidterei@gmail.com>
Edward Z. Yang <ezyang@mit.edu> merged in further changes from GHC HEAD
and fixed a few bugs.

This merge does not turn on the new codegen (which only compiles
a select few programs at this point),
but it does introduce some changes to the old code generator.
The high bits:
1. The Rep Swamp patch is finally here.
The highlight is that the representation of types at the
machine level has changed.
Consequently, this patch contains updates across several back ends.
2. The new Stg -> Cmm path is here, although it appears to have a
fair number of bugs lurking.
3. Many improvements along the CmmCPSZ path, including:
o stack layout
o some code for infotables, half of which is right and half wrong
o proc-point splitting
