Summary:
This patch implements Backpack for GHC. It's a big patch but I've tried quite
hard to keep things, by-in-large, self-contained.
The user facing specification for Backpack can be found at:
https://github.com/ezyang/ghc-proposals/blob/backpack/proposals/0000-backpack.rst
A guide to the implementation can be found at:
https://github.com/ezyang/ghc-proposals/blob/backpack-impl/proposals/0000-backpack-impl.rst
Has a submodule update for Cabal, as well as a submodule update
for filepath to handle more strict checking of cabal-version.
