We made an effort to support ghcide in Nixpkgs, but the complexity of the
problem is a bit too high, IMHO. We need to keep older versions of several
packages around in order to satisfy the build requirements, and some of those
older packages don't even build themselves (like hie-bios). We had ghcide
working at some point, but then it was broken again right away after a couple
of days. I fear that we'll run into that issue again and again with a setup of
that complexity.
Instead, I'd propose that we work with upstream to fix their build, i.e. let's
make sure that the proper ghcide build works with recent versions of its build
inputs.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/75449.
Closes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/76103.
This PR fixes dhall_1_28_0, dhall-bash_1_0_25, and dhall-json_1_6_0 so
they build.
They all require a newer version of prettyprinter than we get from the
LTS package set.

haskellPackages.glirc is a "Console IRC Client." I've added a doJailbreak
to fix the build (thanks @infinisil) and added it to top-level/all-packages.nix
so people can find and install it as they would normally.
Would be nice to make this build in a way that allows the OTR extension to be
enabled. One thing at a time....
Fixes a bug that was noticed during an automated version bump.
What was needed was to add an LD_LIBRARY_PATH entry for stdenv.cc.cc in
makeWrapper
```
--prefix LD_LIBRARY_PATH : "${stdenv.lib.makeLibraryPath [ stdenv.cc.cc ] }" \
```
The error as seen in developer tools console was:
```

To (help) anyone that may find have errors like this in the future:
makeWrapper requiring the makeLibraryPath with stdenv.cc.cc is fairly common for electron apps.
At least ones that use dpkg on prebuilt debian .deb files (my `bitwarden` derivation requires it, too) that use gappsWrapperArgs
Thanks @ryantm / r-ryantm and @worldofpeace :)
