fixes to PPC version of cas(), from David Kirkman <dkirkman@gmail.com>

From David's email:
The problem is that the inline assembler code was placing the result
of an operation in a register that is used as input later in the code.
At the bottom of this message I've extracted a short short code
fragment that you can run through gcc (on a powerpc machine) to see
the generated assembly output.

The changes to fix the problem are fairly simple.  The first adds an
ampersand to the output list of the assembly fragment ("=r" (result)
--> "=&r" (result)) The ampersand just tells gcc that result can not
be placed in a register used for any of the input parameters (o, n, or
p).  Otherwise, it feels free to place output parameters in the same
registers used by the inputs -- but because of the flow of control
here we need everything in a distinct register.  This change fixes the
TVar program above.

The second change adds a clobber list (the :"cc", "memory").  This
tells gcc that the condition code (due to the compare) and memory (due
to the store) might be changed during the asm execution.  The lack of
a clobber list did not seem to be causing any trouble, but without it
gcc is free to assume that no state is changed during the execution.

Fall over more gracefully when there's a Template Haskell error

For a long time, Template Haskell has fallen over in a very un-graceful
way (i.e. panic) even when it encounters a programmer error.  In particular,
when DsMeta converts HsSyn to TH syntax, it may find Haskell code that
TH does not understand. This should be reported as a normal programmer
error, not with a compiler panic!

Originally the desugarer was supposed to never generate error
messages, but this TH desugaring thing does make it do so.  And in
fact, for other reasons, the desugarer now uses the TcRnIf monad, the
common monad used by the renamer, typechecker, interface checker, and
desugarer.

This patch completes the job, by
 - allowing the desugarer to generate errors
 - re-plumbing the error handling to take account of this
 - making DsMeta use the new facilities to report error gracefully

Disable form-checking for rule LHSs

Previously we checked the form of the arguments of a RULE lhs, to

for that, save to prevent you writing LHSs that were unlikely to match.

Allow class and instance decls in hs-boot files

For some reason, in 6.5 the manual said you could put a class decl in
an interface file, but not an instance decl; whereas the implementation
was exactly the othe way round.

This patch makes it possible to put *both* class and instance decls
in an interface file.

I also did a bit of re-factoring; comparing the declarations in the
hs-boot and hs file is now done by converting to IfaceSyn, because we
have good comparison operations for IfaceSyn already implemented.
This fixed a bug that previously let through an inconsistent declaration
of a data type.

The remaining infelicity concerns "abstract" TyCons.  They are a bit
of a hack anyway; and Classes are not handled in the same way.  Need
to think about this, but I think it's probably ok as it stands.

Reject derivable type classes with higher-rank methods

Trac #864 suggested a derivable type class with a higher-rank method.

In principle this is quite do-able, but in practice the mechanism works
by generating source code and then doing type inference.  To make this work
with higher-rank types would require impredicative polymorphism. And we
do have that, so it could probably be made to work by generating (source-level)
type annotations.  But it's real work, so I'm settling for generating a
decent error message rather than crashing.

Be more conservative about duplicating continuations

see the comments mkDupableCont (the Select case with a single alternative).
