-------------------------------------------
	Towards generalising 'foreign' declarations
	-------------------------------------------

This is a first step towards generalising 'foreign' declarations to
handle langauges other than C.  Quite a lot of files are touched,
but nothing has really changed.  Everything should work exactly as
before.

	But please be on your guard for ccall-related bugs.

Main things

Basic data types: ForeignCall.lhs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Remove absCSyn/CallConv.lhs

* Add prelude/ForeignCall.lhs.  This defines the ForeignCall
  type and its variants

* Define ForeignCall.Safety to say whether a call is unsafe
  or not (was just a boolean).  Lots of consequential chuffing.

* Remove all CCall stuff from PrimOp, and put it in ForeignCall

Take CCallOp out of the PrimOp type (where it was always a glitch)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* Add IdInfo.FCallId variant to the type IdInfo.GlobalIdDetails,
	along with predicates Id.isFCallId, Id.isFCallId_maybe

* Add StgSyn.StgOp, to sum PrimOp with FCallOp, because it
  *is* useful to sum them together in Stg and AbsC land.  If
  nothing else, it minimises changes.

Also generally rename "CCall" stuff to "FCall" where it's generic
to all foreign calls.
