Improve the GC behaviour of IORefs (see Ticket #650).

This is a small change to the way IORefs interact with the GC, which
should improve GC performance for programs with plenty of IORefs.

Previously we had a single closure type for mutable variables,
MUT_VAR.  Mutable variables were *always* on the mutable list in older
generations, and always traversed on every GC.

Now, we have two closure types: MUT_VAR_CLEAN and MUT_VAR_DIRTY.  The
latter is on the mutable list, but the former is not.  (NB. this
differs from MUT_ARR_PTRS_CLEAN and MUT_ARR_PTRS_DIRTY, both of which
are on the mutable list).  writeMutVar# now implements a write
barrier, by calling dirty_MUT_VAR() in the runtime, that does the
necessary modification of MUT_VAR_CLEAN into MUT_VAR_DIRY, and adding
to the mutable list if necessary.

This results in some pretty dramatic speedups for GHC itself.  I've
just measureed a 30% overall speedup compiling a 31-module program
(anna) with the default heap settings :-D

Improve the GC behaviour of IOArrays/STArrays

See Ticket #650

This is a small change to the way mutable arrays interact with the GC,
that can have a dramatic effect on performance, and make tricks with
unsafeThaw/unsafeFreeze redundant.  Data.HashTable should be faster
now (I haven't measured it yet).

We now have two mutable array closure types, MUT_ARR_PTRS_CLEAN and
MUT_ARR_PTRS_DIRTY.  Both are on the mutable list if the array is in
an old generation.  writeArray# sets the type to MUT_ARR_PTRS_DIRTY.
The garbage collector can set the type to MUT_ARR_PTRS_CLEAN if it
finds that no element of the array points into a younger generation
(discovering this required a small addition to evacuate(), but rough
tests indicate that it doesn't measurably affect performance).

NOTE: none of this affects unboxed arrays (IOUArray/STUArray), only
boxed arrays (IOArray/STArray).

We could go further and extend the DIRTY bit to be per-block rather
than for the whole array, but for now this is an easy improvement.

Add support for UTF-8 source files

GHC finally has support for full Unicode in source files.  Source
files are now assumed to be UTF-8 encoded, and the full range of
Unicode characters can be used, with classifications recognised using
the implementation from Data.Char.  This incedentally means that only
the stage2 compiler will recognise Unicode in source files, because I
was too lazy to port the unicode classifier code into libcompat.

Additionally, the following synonyms for keywords are now recognised:

  forall symbol  (U+2200) forall
  right arrow    (U+2192) ->
  left arrow    (U+2190) <-
  horizontal ellipsis  (U+22EF) ..

there are probably more things we could add here.

This will break some source files if Latin-1 characters are being used.
In most cases this should result in a UTF-8 decoding error.  Later on
if we want to support more encodings (perhaps with a pragma to specify
the encoding), I plan to do it by recoding into UTF-8 before parsing.

Internally, there were some pretty big changes:

  - FastStrings are now stored in UTF-8

  - Z-encoding has been moved right to the back end.  Previously we
    used to Z-encode every identifier on the way in for simplicity,
    and only decode when we needed to show something to the user.
    Instead, we now keep every string in its UTF-8 encoding, and
    Z-encode right before printing it out.  To avoid Z-encoding the
    same string multiple times, the Z-encoding is cached inside the
    FastString the first time it is requested.

    This speeds up the compiler - I've measured some definite
    improvement in parsing at least, and I expect compilations overall
    to be faster too.  It also cleans up a lot of cruft from the
    OccName interface.  Z-encoding is nicely hidden inside the
    Outputable instance for Names & OccNames now.

  - StringBuffers are UTF-8 too, and are now represented as
    ForeignPtrs.

  - I've put together some test cases, not by any means exhaustive,
    but there are some interesting UTF-8 decoding error cases that
    aren't obvious.  Also, take a look at unicode001.hs for a demo.

MERGE TO STABLE

This commit fixes a nasty problem discovered by Volker Stolz.
The problem is described in Note [Multiple instantiation] in
TcExpr, which is reproduced below.

(Core Lint identifies the problem, incidentally.)

tc200 is a test case.

Note [Multiple instantiation]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are careful never to make a MethodInst that has, as its meth_id, another MethodInst.
For example, consider
f :: forall a. Eq a => forall b. Ord b => a -> b
At a call to f, at say [Int, Bool], it's tempting to translate the call to

f_m1
  where
f_m1 :: forall b. Ord b => Int -> b
f_m1 = f Int dEqInt

f_m2 :: Int -> Bool
f_m2 = f_m1 Bool dOrdBool

But notice that f_m2 has f_m1 as its meth_id.  Now the danger is that if we do
a tcSimplCheck with a Given f_mx :: f Int dEqInt, we may make a binding
f_m1 = f_mx
But it's entirely possible that f_m2 will continue to float out, because it
mentions no type variables.  Result, f_m1 isn't in scope.

Here's a concrete example that does this (test tc200):

    class C a where
      f :: Eq b => b -> a -> Int
      baz :: Eq a => Int -> a -> Int

    instance C Int where
      baz = f

Current solution: only do the "method sharing" thing for the first type/dict
application, not for the iterated ones.  A horribly subtle point.

In the panic message, point to the bug reporting page in the User's
