#2471: generate C wrappers for FFI functions

---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
We often need to go via a wrapper when calling a C function using the FFI,
because the function is part of the API but not the ABI (e.g. it is
defined using a CPP macro, or renamed using a CPP macro). In order to
support these calls more easily, we could have GHC automatically generate
the appropriate C wrappers into the stub file.
