The intent is to generalize `columnParser` to the point where it is the same across all backends, and then remove the interface in favor of a single implementation.
This extracts out `enumParser` and `possiblyNullable` as the two main areas that differ across backends. We may split `possiblyNullable` further so that we can extract some of that logic out into a common function too.
With these changes, the various `columnParser` implementations become semantically equivalent. They still do different things, and so reconciling them will require further changes.

### Description
This PR changes all the schema code to operate in a specific `SchemaT` monad, rather than in an arbitrary `m` monad. `SchemaT` is intended to be used opaquely with `runSourceSchema` and `runRemoteSchema`. The main goal of this is to allow a different reader context per part of the schema: this PR also minimizes the contexts. This means that we no longer require `SchemaOptions` when building remote schemas' schema, and this PR therefore removes a lot of dummy / placeholder values accordingly.
### Performance and stacking
This PR has been through several iterations. #5339 was the original version, that accomplished the same thing by stacking readers on top of the stack at every remote relationship boundary. This raised performance concerns, and @0x777 confirmed with an ad-hoc test that in some extreme cases we could see up to a 10% performance impact. This version, while more verbose, allows us to unstack / re-stack the readers, and avoid that problem. #5517 adds a new benchmark set to be able to automatically measure this on every PR.
### Remaining work
- [x] a comment (or perhaps even a Note?) should be added to `SchemaT`
- [x] we probably want for #5517 to be merged first so that we can confirm the lack of performance penalty

This PR expands the OpenAPI specification generated for metadata to include separate definitions for `SourceMetadata` for each native database type, and for DataConnector.
For the most part the changes add `HasCodec` implementations, and don't modify existing code otherwise.
The generated OpenAPI spec can be used to generate TypeScript definitions that distinguish different source metadata types based on the value of the `kind` properly. There is a problem: because the specified `kind` value for a data connector source is any string, when TypeScript gets a source with a `kind` value of, say, `"postgres"`, it cannot unambiguously determine whether the source is postgres, or a data connector. For example,
```ts
function consumeSourceMetadata(source: SourceMetadata) {
if (source.kind === "postgres" || source.kind === "pg") {
// At this point TypeScript infers that `source` is either an instance
// of `PostgresSourceMetadata`, or `DataconnectorSourceMetadata`. It
// can't narrow further.
source
}
if (source.kind === "something else") {
// TypeScript infers that this `source` must be an instance of
// `DataconnectorSourceMetadata` because `source.kind` does not match
// any of the other options.
source
}
}
```
The simplest way I can think of to fix this would be to add a boolean property to the `SourceMetadata` type along the lines of `isNative` or `isDataConnector`. This could be a field that only exists in serialized data, like the metadata version field. The combination of one of the native database names for `kind`, and a true value for `isNative` would be enough for TypeScript to unambiguously distinguish the source kinds.
But note that in the current state TypeScript is able to reference the short `"pg"` name correctly!
~~Tests are not passing yet due to some discrepancies in DTO serialization vs existing Metadata serialization. I'm working on that.~~
The placeholders that I used for table and function metadata are not compatible with the ordered JSON serialization in use. I think the best solution is to write compatible codecs for those types in another PR. For now I have disabled some DTO tests for this PR.
Here are the generated [OpenAPI spec](https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine-mono/files/9397333/openapi.tar.gz) based on these changes, and the generated [TypeScript client code](https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine-mono/files/9397339/client-typescript.tar.gz) based on that spec.

This makes it easier to refactor `BackendSchema`, because if the type of a type class method is changed, it's easier to update the corresponding dummy implementations.
Partially addresses hasura/graphql-engine-mono#2971, in the sense that this aids refactors.

Followup to hasura/graphql-engine-mono#4713.
The `memoizeOn` method, part of `MonadSchema`, originally had the following type:
```haskell
memoizeOn
:: (HasCallStack, Ord a, Typeable a, Typeable b, Typeable k)
=> TH.Name
-> a
-> m (Parser k n b)
-> m (Parser k n b)
```
The reason for operating on `Parser`s specifically was that the `MonadSchema` effect would additionally initialize certain `Unique` values, which appear (nested in) the type of `Parser`.
hasura/graphql-engine-mono#518 changed the type of `memoizeOn`, to additionally allow memoizing `FieldParser`s. These also contained a `Unique` value, which was similarly initialized by the `MonadSchema` effect. The new type of `memoizeOn` was as follows:
```haskell
memoizeOn
:: forall p d a b
. (HasCallStack, HasDefinition (p n b) d, Ord a, Typeable p, Typeable a, Typeable b)
=> TH.Name
-> a
-> m (p n b)
-> m (p n b)
```
Note the type `p n b` of the value being memoized: by choosing `p` to be either `Parser k` or `FieldParser`, both can be memoized. Also note the new `HasDefinition (p n b) d` constraint, which provided a `Lens` for accessing the `Unique` value to be initialized.
A quick simplification is that the `HasCallStack` constraint has never been used by any code. This was realized in hasura/graphql-engine-mono#4713, by removing that constraint.
hasura/graphql-engine-mono#2980 removed the `Unique` value from our GraphQL-related types entirely, as their original purpose was never truly realized. One part of removing `Unique` consisted of dropping the `HasDefinition (p n b) d` constraint from `memoizeOn`.
What I didn't realize at the time was that this meant that the type of `memoizeOn` could be generalized and simplified much further. This PR finally implements that generalization. The new type is as follows:
```haskell
memoizeOn ::
forall a p.
(Ord a, Typeable a, Typeable p) =>
TH.Name ->
a ->
m p ->
m p
```
This change has a couple of consequences.
1. While constructing the schema, we often output `Maybe (Parser ...)`, to model that the existence of certain pieces of GraphQL schema sometimes depends on the permissions that a certain role has. The previous versions of `memoizeOn` were not able to handle this, as the only thing they could memoize was fully-defined (if not yet fully-evaluated) `(Field)Parser`s. This much more general API _would_ allow memoizing `Maybe (Parser ...)`s. However, we probably have to be continue being cautious with this: if we blindly memoize all `Maybe (Parser ...)`s, the resulting code may never be able to decide whether the value is `Just` or `Nothing` - i.e. it never commits to the existence-or-not of a GraphQL schema fragment. This would manifest as a non-well-founded knot tying, and this would get reported as an error by the implementation of `memoizeOn`.
tl;dr: This generalization _technically_ allows for memoizing `Maybe` values, but we probably still want to avoid doing so.
For this reason, the PR adds a specialized version of `memoizeOn` to `Hasura.GraphQL.Schema.Parser`.
2. There is no longer any need to connect the `MonadSchema` knot-tying effect with the `MonadParse` effect. In fact, after this PR, the `memoizeOn` method is completely GraphQL-agnostic, and so we implement hasura/graphql-engine-mono#4726, separating `memoizeOn` from `MonadParse` entirely - `memoizeOn` can be defined and implemented as a general Haskell typeclass method.
Since `MonadSchema` has been made into a single-type-parameter type class, it has been renamed to something more general, namely `MonadMemoize`. Its only task is to memoize arbitrary `Typeable p` objects under a combined key consisting of a `TH.Name` and a `Typeable a`.
Also for this reason, the new `MonadMemoize` has been moved to the more general `Control.Monad.Memoize`.
3. After this change, it's somewhat clearer what `memoizeOn` does: it memoizes an arbitrary value of a `Typeable` type. The only thing that needs to be understood in its implementation is how the manual blackholing works. There is no more semantic interaction with _any_ GraphQL code.

### Description
By definition, root fields are at the root of the schema: only functions that craft root fields need to know about how to customize the name of root fields. However, the presence of `Has MkRootFieldName` in `MonadBuildSchemaBase` meant that the entirety of the schema building code was implicitly aware of / capable of altering root field names.
This PR removes this constraint, and moves it to the functions that do craft root fields. This has several upsides:
- it makes it more explicit where root fields are being crafted
- it prevents functions that should not use this from mistakenly applying it to non-root fields
- it simplifies the shared schema context
### Future work
- can we maybe pass this as an argument, instead of making it a required part of the context?
- ~~AFAICT, we only ever use `mempty` for it: is this actually dead code that we should actually just remove altogether?~~

### Description
I am not 100% sure about this PR; while I think the code is better this way, I'm willing to be convinced otherwise.
In short, this PR moves the `RoleName` field into the `SchemaContext`, instead of being a nebulous `Has RoleName` constraint on the reader monad. The major upside of this is that it makes it an explicit named field, rather than something that must be given as part of a tuple of arguments when calling `runReader`.
However, the downside is that it breaks the helper permissions functions of `Schema.Table`, which relied on `Has RoleName r`. This PR makes the choice of passing the role name explicitly to all of those functions, which in turn means first explicitly fetching the role name in a lot of places. It makes it more explicit when a schema building block relies on the role name, but is a bit verbose...
### Alternatives
Some alternatives worth considering:
- attempting something like `Has context r, Has RoleName context`, which would allow them to be independent from the context but still fetch the role name from the reader, but might require type annotations to not be ambiguous
- keeping the permission functions the same, with `Has RoleName r`, and introducing a bunch of newtypes instead of using tuples to explicitly implement all the required `Has` instances
- changing the permission functions to `Has SchemaContext r`, since they are functions used only to build the schema, and therefore may be allowed to be tied to the context.

In the process of decoupling the schema parsers from the GraphQL Engine, we need to remove dependencies on `Hasura.Base.Error`.
First of all, we have avoided using `QErr` in schema parsers code, instead returning a more appropriate data type which can be converted to a `Hasura.Base.Error.QErr` later.
Secondly, we create a new `ParseErrorCode` type to represent parse failure types, which are then converted to a `Hasura.Base.Error.Code` later.

This introduces an `ErrorMessage` newtype which wraps `Text` in a manner which is designed to be easy to construct, and difficult to deconstruct.
It provides functionality similar to `Data.Text.Extended`, but designed _only_ for error messages. Error messages are constructed through `fromString`, concatenation, or the `toErrorValue` function, which is designed to be overridden for all meaningful domain types that might show up in an error message. Notably, there are not and should never be instances of `ToErrorValue` for `String`, `Text`, `Int`, etc. This is so that we correctly represent the value in a way that is specific to its type. For example, all `Name` values (from the _graphql-parser-hs_ library) are single-quoted now; no exceptions.
I have mostly had to add `instance ToErrorValue` for various backend types (and also add newtypes where necessary). Some of these are not strictly necessary for this changeset, as I had bigger aspirations when I started. These aspirations have been tempered by trying and failing twice.
As such, in this changeset, I have started by introducing this type to the `parseError` and `parseErrorWith` functions. In the future, I would like to extend this to the `QErr` record and the various `throwError` functions, but this is a much larger task and should probably be done in stages.
For now, `toErrorMessage` and `fromErrorMessage` are provided for conversion to and from `Text`, but the intent is to stop exporting these once all error messages are converted to the new type.

This moves `MkTypename` and `NamingCase` into their own modules, with the intent of reducing the scope of the schema parsers code, and trying to reduce imports of large modules when small ones will do.

This reflects the two different usages, which should not be conflated.
We also propagate the type a little more, to avoid `Text`.

We only use these `Show` instances in error messages (where we call
`show` explicitly anyway) and test cases (in which Hspec requires `Show
a` for any `a` in an assertion).
This removes the instance in favor of a custom `showQErr` function
(which serializes the error to JSON). It is then used in certain error
message production which previously called `show` on a `QErr`.
There are two places where we serialize a QErr and then construct a new
QErr from the resulting string. Instead, we modify the existing QErr to
add extra information.
An orphan `Show QErr` instance is retained for tests so that we can have
nice test failure messages.
This is preparation for future changes in which the error message within
`QErr` will not be exposed directly, and therefore will not have a
`Show` instance. That said, it feels like a sensible kind of cleanup
anyway.

This came about as I tried to add an instance over catalog versions and
found they were just simple integers most of the time (and in one case,
a float).
I think this change also clarifies how catalog versions work.

The code that builds the GraphQL schema, and `buildGQLContext` in particular, is partial: not every value of `(ServerConfigCtx, GraphQLQueryType, SourceCache, HashMap RemoteSchemaName (RemoteSchemaCtx, MetadataObject), ActionCache, AnnotatedCustomTypes)` results in a valid GraphQL schema. When it fails, we want to be able to return better error messages than we currently do.
The key thing that is missing is a way to trace back GraphQL type information to their origin from the Hasura metadata. Currently, we have a number of correctness checks of our GraphQL schema. But these correctness checks only have access to pure GraphQL type information, and hence can only report errors in terms of that. Possibly the worst is the "conflicting definitions" error, which, in practice, can only be debugged by Hasura engineers. This is terrible DX for customers.
This PR allows us to print better error messages, by adding a field to the `Definition` type that traces the GraphQL type to its origin in the metadata. So the idea is simple: just add `MetadataObjId`, or `Maybe` that, or some other sum type of that, to `Definition`.
However, we want to avoid having to import a `Hasura.RQL` module from `Hasura.GraphQL.Parser`. So we instead define this additional field of `Definition` through a new type parameter, which is threaded through in `Hasura.GraphQL.Parser`. We then define type synonyms in `Hasura.GraphQL.Schema.Parser` that fill in this type parameter, so that it is not visible for the majority of the codebase.
The idea of associating metadata information to `Definition`s really comes to fruition when combined with hasura/graphql-engine-mono#4517. Their combination would allow us to use the API of fatal errors (just like the current `MonadError QErr`) to report _inconsistencies_ in the metadata. Such inconsistencies are then _automatically_ ignored. So no ad-hoc decisions need to be made on how to cut out inconsistent metadata from the GraphQL schema. This will allow us to report much better errors, as well as improve the likelihood of a successful HGE startup.

Pretty much all quasi-quoted names in the server code base have ended up in `Hasura.GraphQL.Parser.Constants`. I'm now finding this unpleasant for two reasons:
1. I would like to factor out the parser code into its own Cabal package, and I don't want to have to expose all these names.
2. Most of them really have nothing to do with the parsers.
In order to remedy this, I have:
1. moved the names used by parser code to `Hasura.GraphQL.Parser.DirectiveName`, as they're all related to directives;
2. moved `Hasura.GraphQL.Parser.Constants` to `Hasura.Name`, changing the qualified import name from `G` to `Name`;
3. moved names only used in tests to the appropriate test case;
4. removed unused items from `Hasura.Name`; and
5. grouped related names.
Most of the changes are simply changing `G` to `Name`, which I find much more meaningful.
