Merge in the changes from the existential_types_2 branch.
This change adds support for mode re-ordering of code involving
existential types. The change required modifying the order of the
compiler passes so that polymorphism comes before mode analysis,
so that mode analysis can check the modes of the `type_info' or
`typeclass_info' variables that polymorphism introduces, so that
it can thus re-order the code accordingly.
This change also includes some more steps towards making existential data
types work. In particular, you should be able to declare existentially
typed data types, the compiler will generate appropriate unification
and compare/3 routines for them, and deconstruction unifications for them
should work OK. However, currently there's no way to construct them
except via `pragam c_code', and we don't generate correct RTTI for them,
so you can't use `io__write' etc. on them.

The setting of some optimization flags can require information
(including termination information) about some non-interface
procedures to be included in the .trans_opt file if intermodule
optimization is specified. For consistent results even when the
default sets of flags vary, we now disable the flags that can
have this effect.

Restrict the output to what you get without intermodule optimization
flags.

Allow modules to be put in source files whose names do not directly match
their the module names. When looking for the source for a module such
as `foo:bar:baz', search for it first in `foo.bar.baz.m', then in `bar.baz.m',
and finally in `baz.m'.
compiler/prog_io.m:
Change prog_io__read_module so that it returns the name of
the module read, as determined by the `:- module' declaration.
Add predicate `check_module_has_expected_name', for checking
that this name matches what was expected.
compiler/modules.m:
Add read_mod_from_file, for reading a module given the file name,
and generated_file_dependencies, for generating the dependencies
of a module given the file name. (As opposed to the module name.)
Change read_mod and read_mod_ignore_errors so that they
search for `.m' files as described above, and return the name
of the source file read.
Also improve the efficiency of read_dependencies slightly:
when reading in `.int' files, there's no need to call
split_into_submodules, because we generate a seperate
`.int' file for each submodule anyway.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
Change the handling of command-line arguments.
Arguments ending with `.m' are assumed to be file names,
and other arguments are assumed to be module names.
For file names, call read_mod_from_file instead of read_mod.
compiler/handle_options.m:
Change help message to reflect the above change to the semantics
of command-line arguments.
compiler/intermod.m:
compiler/trans_opt.m:
Fix a bug: call prog_io__read_opt_file instead of prog_io__read_module.

Fix various invasions of the user's namespace by `mercury_builtin.m',
by splitting mercury_builtin.m into two modules, called builtin.m and
private_builtin.m, and ensuring that the latter is imported as if
by `:- use_module' rather than `:- import_module'.
library/builtin.m:
library/private_builtin.m:
Split mercury_builtin.m into two modules, builtin.m,
which contains stuff intended to be public,
and private_builtin.m, which contains implementation
details that are not supposed to be public.
library/mercury_builtin.m:
Add a comment saying that this module is no longer used, and
should eventually be removed. I have not removed it yet, since
that would prevent bootstrapping with the current compiler. It
will be removed as a seperate change later, once all the
changes have propagated.
compiler/prog_util.m:
Change the definition of mercury_private_builtin_module/1 and
mercury_public_builtin_module so that instead of automatically
importing mercury_builtin.m as if by `import_module', the
copiler will now automatically import builtin.m as if by
`import_module' and private_builtin.m as if by `use_module'.
compiler/polymorphism.m:
Change a call to mercury_private_builtin_module/1 for
unsafe_promise_unique to instead call mercury_public_builtin_module/1.

Fix some problems with the `--use-subdirs' option.

compiler/modules.m:
Put `.h' files in the source directory, rather than
in the `Mercury/hs' subdirectory.
compiler/mercury_compile.m:
scripts/Mmake.rules:
If `--use-subdirs' is enabled, pass `-I.' to the C compiler,
so that #include statements work relative to the source directory
rather than relative to the `Mercury/cs' subdirectory.
scripts/Mmake.vars.in:
Define $(cs_subdir), $(os_subdir) etc. variables;
these are set to the directory to use for .c, .o, etc. files,
(including the trailing `/'), or to the empty string,
if --use-subdirs is not set.
scripts/Mmake.rules:
Use $(cs_subdir), $(os_subdir) etc. to avoid the code
duplication created by my previous change to handle
--use-subdirs.
Also add lots of comments, and reorder the code
in a more logical order.

Add `rm -f tags' to the rule for `mmake realclean'.
tools/bootcheck:
Add `--use-subdirs' option (defaults to setting of the
MMAKE_USE_SUBDIRS environment variable).

the tests in the other test directories are run. This fixes
a bug where the test harness had `lmc3' instead of `$(MC)'.
It also makes things more consistent, ensures that the tests
will take notice of the usual runtests options and mmake variable
settings, and allows the tests to be run in parallel (e.g. -j8).

A rewrite of termination analysis to make it significantly easier to modify,
and to extend its capabilities.
compiler/error_util.m:
A new file containing code that makes it easier to generate
nicely formatted error messages.
compiler/termination.m:
Updates to reflect the changes to the representation of termination
information.
Instead of doing pass 1 on all SCCs and then pass 2 on all SCCs,
we now do both pass 1 and 2 on an SCC before moving on to the next.
Do not insist that either all procedures in an SCC are
compiler-generated or all are user-written, since this need not be
true in the presence of user-defined equality predicates.
Clarify the structure of the code that handles builtins and compiler
generated predicates.
Concentrate all the code for updating module_infos in this module.
Previously it was scattered in several places in several files.
Put all the code for writing out termination information at the
end of the module in a logical order.
compiler/term_traversal.m:
A new file containing code used by both pass 1 and pass 2 to
traverse procedure bodies.
compiler/term_pass1.m:
Use the new traversal module.
Clarify the fixpoint computation on the set of output supplier
arguments.
Remove duplicates from the list of equations given to the solver.
This avoids a det stack overflow in lp.m when doing termination
analysis on options.m.
If an output argument of a predicate makes sense only in the absence
of errors, then return it only in the absence of errors.
compiler/term_pass2.m:
Use the new traversal module. Unlike the previous code, this allows us
to ignore recursive calls with input arguments bigger than the head
if those calls occur after goals that cannot succeed (since those
calls will never be reached).
Implement a better way of doing single argument analysis, which
(unlike the previous version) works in the presence of mutual recursion
and other calls between the recursive call and the start of the clause.
Implement a more precise way of checking for recursions that don't
cause termination problems. We now allow calls from p to q in which
the recursive input supplier arguments can grow, provided that on
any path on which q can call p, directly or indirectly, the recursive
input supplier arguments shrink by a greater amount.
If an output argument of a predicate makes sense only in the absence
of errors, then return it only in the absence of errors.
compiler/term_util.m:
Updates to reflect the changes to the representation of termination
information.
Reorder to put related code together.
Change the interface of several predicates to better reflect the
way they are used.
Add some more utility predicates.
compiler/term_errors.m:
Small changes to the set of possible errors, and major changes in
the way the messages are printed out (we now use error_util).
compiler/options.m:
Change --term-single-arg from being a bool to an int option,
whose value indicates the maximum size of an SCC in which we try
single argument analysis. (Large SCCs can cause single-arg analysis
to require a lot of iterations.)
Add an (int) option that controls the max number of paths
that we are willing to analyze (analyzing too many paths can cause
det stack overflow).
Add an (int) option that controls the max number of causes of
nontermination that we print out.
compiler/hlds_pred.m:
Use two separate slots in the proc_info to hold argument size data
and termination info, instead of the single slot used until now.
The two kinds of information are produced and used separately.
Make the layout of the get and set procedures for proc_infos more
regular, to facilitate later updates.
The procedures proc_info_{,set_}variables did the same work as
proc_info_{,set_}varset. To eliminate potential confusion, I
removed the first set.
compiler/*.m:
Change proc_info_{,set_}variables to proc_info_{,set_}varset.
compiler/hlds_out.m:
compiler/make_hlds.m:
compiler/mercury_to_mercury.m:

info separately.
compiler/prog_data.m:

hold the arg size data and the termination info separately.
compiler/prog_io_pragma.m:
Change the external representation of termination_info pragmas to
group the arg size data together with the output supplier data,
to which it is logically connected.
compiler/module_qual.m:
compiler/modules.m:
Change the code to accommodate the change to the internal

Fix code that would do the wrong thing if executed by Prolog.
Remove spaces from the ends of lines.
library/list.m:
Add a new predicate, list__take_upto.
library/set{,_ordlist}.m:
Add a new predicate, set{,_ordlist}__count.
tests/term/*:
A bunch of new test cases to test the behaviour of termination
analysis. They are the small benchmark suite from our paper.
