Fixes https://github.com/hasura/graphql-engine-mono/issues/712
Main point of interest: the `Hasura.SQL.Backend` module.
This PR creates an `Exists` type indexed by indexed type and packed constraint while hiding all of its complexity by not exporting the constructor.
Existential constructors/types which are no longer (directly) existential:
- [X] BackendSourceInfo :: BackendSourceInfo
- [x] BackendSourceMetadata :: BackendSourceMetadata
- [x] MOSourceObjId :: MetadatObjId
- [x] SOSourceObj :: SchemaObjId
- [x] RFDB :: RootField
- [x] LQP :: LiveQueryPlan
- [x] ExecutionStep :: ExecStepDB
This PR also removes ALL usages of `Typeable.cast` from our codebase. We still need to derive `Typeable` in a few places in order to be able to derive `Data` in one place. I have not dug deeper to see why this is needed.

docker image - `hasura/graphql-engine:inherited-roles-preview-48b73a2de`
Note:
To be able to use the inherited roles feature, the graphql-engine should be started with the env variable `HASURA_GRAPHQL_EXPERIMENTAL_FEATURES` set to `inherited_roles`.
Introduction
------------
This PR implements the idea of multiple roles as presented in this [paper](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/FGALanguageICDE07.pdf). The multiple roles feature in this PR can be used via inherited roles. An inherited role is a role which can be created by combining multiple singular roles. For example, if there are two roles `author` and `editor` configured in the graphql-engine, then we can create a inherited role with the name of `combined_author_editor` role which will combine the select permissions of the `author` and `editor` roles and then make GraphQL queries using the `combined_author_editor`.
How are select permissions of different roles are combined?
------------------------------------------------------------
A select permission includes 5 things:
1. Columns accessible to the role
2. Row selection filter
3. Limit
4. Allow aggregation
5. Scalar computed fields accessible to the role
Suppose there are two roles, `role1` gives access to the `address` column with row filter `P1` and `role2` gives access to both the `address` and the `phone` column with row filter `P2` and we create a new role `combined_roles` which combines `role1` and `role2`.
Let's say the following GraphQL query is queried with the `combined_roles` role.
```graphql
query {
employees {
address
phone
}
}
```
This will translate to the following SQL query:
```sql
select
(case when (P1 or P2) then address else null end) as address,
(case when P2 then phone else null end) as phone
from employee
where (P1 or P2)
```
The other parameters of the select permission will be combined in the following manner:
1. Limit - Minimum of the limits will be the limit of the inherited role
2. Allow aggregations - If any of the role allows aggregation, then the inherited role will allow aggregation
3. Scalar computed fields - same as table column fields, as in the above example
APIs for inherited roles:
----------------------
1. `add_inherited_role`
`add_inherited_role` is the [metadata API](https://hasura.io/docs/1.0/graphql/core/api-reference/index.html#schema-metadata-api) to create a new inherited role. It accepts two arguments
`role_name`: the name of the inherited role to be added (String)
`role_set`: list of roles that need to be combined (Array of Strings)
Example:
```json
{
"type": "add_inherited_role",
"args": {
"role_name":"combined_user",
"role_set":[
"user",
"user1"
]
}
}
```
After adding the inherited role, the inherited role can be used like single roles like earlier
Note:
An inherited role can only be created with non-inherited/singular roles.
2. `drop_inherited_role`
The `drop_inherited_role` API accepts the name of the inherited role and drops it from the metadata. It accepts a single argument:
`role_name`: name of the inherited role to be dropped
Example:
```json
{
"type": "drop_inherited_role",
"args": {
"role_name":"combined_user"
}
}
```
Metadata
---------
The derived roles metadata will be included under the `experimental_features` key while exporting the metadata.
```json
{
"experimental_features": {
"derived_roles": [
{
"role_name": "manager_is_employee_too",
"role_set": [
"employee",
"manager"
]
}
]
}
}
```
Scope
------
Only postgres queries and subscriptions are supported in this PR.
Important points:
-----------------
1. All columns exposed to an inherited role will be marked as `nullable`, this is done so that cell value nullification can be done.
TODOs
-------
- [ ] Tests
- [ ] Test a GraphQL query running with a inherited role without enabling inherited roles in experimental features
- [] Tests for aggregate queries, limit, computed fields, functions, subscriptions (?)
- [ ] Introspection test with a inherited role (nullability changes in a inherited role)
- [ ] Docs
- [ ] Changelog

This PR makes a bunch of schema generation code in Hasura.GraphQL.Schema backend-agnostic, by moving the backend-specific parts into a new BackendSchema type class. This way, the schema generation code can be reused for other backends, simply by implementing new instances of the BackendSchema type class.
This work is now in a state where the schema generators are sufficiently generic to accept the implementation of a new backend. That means that we can start exposing MS SQL schema. Execution is not implemented yet, of course.
The branch currently does not support computed fields or Relay. This is, in a sense, intentional: computed field support is normally baked into the schema generation (through the fieldSelection schema generator), and so this branch shows a programming technique that allows us to expose certain GraphQL schema depending on backend support. We can write support for computed fields and Relay at a later stage.

- Move MonadBase/MonadBaseControl instances for TxE into pg-client-hs
- Set the -qn2 RTS option by default to limit the parallel GC to 2
threads
- Remove eventlog instrumentation
- Don’t rebuild the schema cache again after running a query that needs
it to be rebuilt, since we do that explicitly now.
- Remove some redundant checks, and relocate a couple others.
This changes TableCoreCacheT to internally record dependencies at a
per-table level. In practice, this dramatically improves the performance
of building permissions: it makes it far, far less likely for
permissions to be needlessly rebuilt because some unrelated table
changed.
