Re-working of the breakpoint support

This is the result of Bernie Pope's internship work at MSR Cambridge,
with some subsequent improvements by me.  The main plan was to

 (a) Reduce the overhead for breakpoints, so we could enable
     the feature by default without incurrent a significant penalty
 (b) Scatter more breakpoint sites throughout the code

Currently we can set a breakpoint on almost any subexpression, and the
overhead is around 1.5x slower than normal GHCi.  I hope to be able to
get this down further and/or allow breakpoints to be turned off.

This patch also fixes up :print following the recent changes to
constructor info tables.  (most of the :print tests now pass)

We now support single-stepping, which just enables all breakpoints.

  :step <expr>     executes <expr> with single-stepping turned on
  :step            single-steps from the current breakpoint

The mechanism is quite different to the previous implementation.  We
share code with the HPC (haskell program coverage) implementation now.
The coverage pass annotates source code with "tick" locations which
are tracked by the coverage tool.  In GHCi, each "tick" becomes a
potential breakpoint location.

Previously breakpoints were compiled into code that magically invoked
a nested instance of GHCi.  Now, a breakpoint causes the current
thread to block and control is returned to GHCi.

Simon Marlow [Wed, 11 Apr 2007 10:18:02 +0000 (10:18 +0000)]
Rationalise GhcMode, HscTarget and GhcLink

This patch cleans up the GHC API, and adds some functionality: we can
now compile to object code inside GHCi.

Previously we had:

  data GhcMode
    = BatchCompile
    | Interactive
    | OneShot
    | JustTypecheck
    | MkDepend

  data HscTarget
    = HscC
    | HscAsm
    | HscJava
    | HscInterpreted
    | HscNothing

There was redundancy here; if GhcMode is Interactive, then only
HscInterpreted makes sense, and JustTypecheck required HscNothing.
Now we have:

  data GhcMode
    = CompManager       -- ^ --make, GHCi, etc.
    | OneShot           -- ^ ghc -c Foo.hs
    | MkDepend          -- ^ ghc -M, see Finder for why we need this

and HscTarget remains as before.

Previously GhcLink looked like this:

  data GhcLink = NoLink | StaticLink

Now we have:

  data GhcLink = NoLink | LinkBinary | LinkInMemory

The idea being that you can have an HscTarget of HscAsm (for example)
and still link in memory.

There are two new flags:

  -fobject-code selects object code as the target (selects
                either -fasm or -fvia-C, whichever is the default)
                This can be usd with ':set' in GHCi, or on the command line.

  -fbyte-code   sets byte-code as the target.  Only works in GHCi.
                One day maybe this could save the byte code in a file
                when used outside GHCi.

  (names chosen for consistency with -fno-code).

Changes to the GHC API: newSession no longer takes the GhcMode
argument.  The GhcMode defaults to CompManager, which is usually what
you want.  To do JustTypecheck now, just set hscTarget to HscNothing.
