Along the way:

Obseleted CPP and compatibility workarounds were removed
Most remaining CPP conditions are moved into bytestring-cpp-macros.h and given specific feature names
Most imports from ghc-prim are replaced with equivalent imports from base
Data.ByteString.Builder.RealFloat.Internal is left untouched, to avoid unnecessary conflicts
