The shake-0.16 can't be built with ghc-8.4.3, due to the
Semigroup-Monoid-Proposal changes. shake-0.16.1 fixed that.

A nicer fix would involve patching GHC to not just look under
$libexec/ but also under the directory where the GHC binary itself lives
(bin/ for hadrian), so that we can leave all binaries under bin/.

Addresses Trac #15132.

I noticed that one sentence from the README is out of date, so here's a tentative wording that reflects the current state of things.

* Copy inplace/mingw to the build root

* Run Hadrian with -c on AppVeyor

See #541

* wip

* debugging output

* Compute ProjectVersion on demand ONLY!

* remove debugging output, boot with --hadrian

* go back to using -c everywhere in .travis.yml

* prioritise libgmp.a rule over catch-all *.a rule, to avoid conflict

* add missing import

* tentative fix for the appveyor script

* use backslashes in appveyor.yml

* less 'cd'ing around in appveyor.yml

* address most of @snowleopard's feedback

* address last bit of feedback

* Minor revision

* Use untracked doesFileExist

* Drop support for lib0 libraries

See #573

* Minor refactoring

* Fix the path to touchy

* Allow binaries to live in lib/bin

* Fix path to GMP's config.mk

* Minor revision

* Relocate GMP's build artefacts

See #554

* Fix indentation

* Pass the verbosity setting to Cabal

* Add a workaround for missing fs.h files

* Print diagnostic info in verbose mode

* Try enable-distro-toolchain

* Improve error handling

Fix copyFile failure on Windows plus minor revision

* Call the boot script using the right Python interpreter

* Install Python3

* Call boot and configure from Stack environment

* Stay in Hadrian directory

* Fix path to Stack

* Fix slashes

* Use bash to run configure

* Preliminary bindist rule

For now, we only ship `<build root>/{bin, lib}` and the few make build system
related files that are needed to support a simple

```
./configure [--prefix=PATH] && make install
```

workflow. The current binary distributions of GHC support a wider range
of parameters, but I figured it would be a good thing to start with this
and enhance it as we all see fit and perhaps using feedback from GHC HQ
(@bgamari in particular) and bindist users.

* document binary distribution rule in README

* sdist-ghc -> source-dist, Rules.Bindist -> Rules.BinaryDist

* add missing src/Rules/BinaryDist.hs
