431b774cc0 ghc: greatly simplify the GHC compiler wrapper
The wrapper script accumulated some cruft over the last couple of months
because we did changes in freaky ways to avoid triggering re-builds of all
Haskell packages. Most of these kludges have been thrown out now.

This patch doesn't change the behavior of the wrapper except for one thing: the
internal helper scripts "ghc-get-packages.sh" and "ghc-packages.sh" are no
longer installed in the bin directory of the generated derivation.

3bf0d2b960 ghc-wrapper: install the GHC documentation into the user's profile
The freaky implementation was done that way in order to avoid unnecessary
re-builds of all Haskell packages by changing the wrapper script used
internally in those builds.

See <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/466> for further details.

c556a6ea46 * "ensureDir" -> "mkdir -p". "ensureDir" is a rather pointless
function, so obsolete it.

ffcd38403e * Install the package config files under
$out/lib/ghc-pkgs/ghc-<version>/<package>.conf instead of under
  $out/nix-support/ghc-package.conf.  This makes them visible in the
  user's profile when installed with nix-env.

cee387e845 * Move the composition of Haskell packages out of all-packages.nix
into haskell-packages.nix, which depends on an instance of GHC.
  This allows a consistent set of packages to be built with the same
  GHC.  For instance,

  $ nix-build -A haskellPackages_ghc683.xmonad

  builds xmonad and all its dependencies with GHC 6.8.3, while

  $ nix-build -A haskellPackages_ghc6102.xmonad

  does the same with GHC 6.10.2.  This is the same technique used with
  kernelPackages.  It also means that we don't need things like
  "cabal682" and "cabal683" anymore.

* The setup hook is now in a separate wrapper package so that we don't
  have to recompile all of GHC every time we want to make a small
  change.

* cinelerra: this package appears to have an accidental dependency on
  the "X11" Haskell package.
