sternenseemann 558da925f3 ghc: make sure top level exposed GHC is always host->target 
See the added comment in all-packages.nix for a more detailed
explanation. This makes the top-level GHC different from
haskellPackages.ghc (which is build->host and used for building the
package set), but more consistent with gcc, gnat etc.

Specifically, pkgsCross.${platform}.buildPackages.ghc will now be a
cross-compiler instead of a native build->build compiler.

Since this change has a slight chance of being disruptive, add a note to
the changelog.

This directory is temporarily needed while we transition the manual to CommonMark. It stores the output of the ../md-to-db.sh script that converts CommonMark files back to DocBook.

We are choosing to convert the Markdown to DocBook at authoring time instead of manual building time, because we do not want the pandoc toolchain to become part of the NixOS closure.

Do not edit the DocBook files inside this directory or its subdirectories. Instead, edit the corresponding .md file in the normal manual directories, and run ../md-to-db.sh to update the file here.
