Peter Simons 470ade254e Add support for jailbreak-cabal utility to the Cabal builder.
Jailbreaks-cabal allows Nixpkgs maintainers to quick-fix builds of packages
that over-specify their version requirements by removing the version
restrictions of all dependencies from the Cabal file. Set

  jailbreak = true

in the build expression to activate this feature.

Peter Simons cecff49b34 Moved the cabal build driver function from development/libraries/haskell/cabal to build-support/cabal.
This change also resolves the "cabal" vs. "Cabal" ambiguity on file systems
that don't distinguish case.
