haskell-ci 0.16 finally supports the best 9.2 GHC yet.

This should also fix the problem that our workflows weren't being picked

hackage-db: support cabal-install 3.10.1.0 XDG paths.

Just like cabal-install, if CABAL_DIR is set, use that for all
operations. The environment varia...

with 22.11, that is): h...

Fix test suites with Cabal >= 3.8

Cabal 3.8 introduced the following new platform related type
constructors:

Newly added platforms:

Seems like modules were shuffled around for some reason.

Additionally we allow disabling HLS, since it often lags behind a bit in
terms of support. To ge...
