Hamish Mackenzie f3ea06dcac Work around for packages in lts that do not install. (#1437)
For ghc 9.0.2 Haskell.nix will use the `stm`and `filepath` source that came with `ghc` when the version desired matches.  This is because 9.0.2 shipped with packages that differ from the same version in hackage.

`reinstallableLibGhc` is fixed for GHC 8.10 and above.  Rather than including a patch file this works by:

* Setting the `subDir` to the `compiler` directory when building.  That way relative paths to other parts of the `ghc` source tree (outside the `compiler` directory) still work.
* Files that are needed, but generated when `ghc` builds are added from the `generated` output of the ghc derivation.

`nonReinstallablePkgs` is now sorted and deduplicated before it is used (this reduces the chance of rebuilds when the list is refactored).

Hamish Mackenzie a5f9f45922 Test setup deps issue depending on ghc and Cabal (#278)
Projects like asterius and leksah that include dependencies on ghc. Sometimes the are needed by a setup.hs file (as is the case for the binaryen package used by asterius). The recent overlays merge broke this and #279 was needed to allow reinstallableLibGhc to be used to fix it. This PR adds a test case to make sure it is not inadvertently broken again. Also gives us a place to try out better ways to make this type of package work.* Test setup deps issue depending on ghc and Cabal
