The general approach is to add a new field to the package database,
reexported-modules, which considered by the module finder as possible
module declarations.  Unlike declaring stub module files, multiple
reexports of the same physical package at the same name do not
result in an ambiguous import.

Has submodule updates for Cabal and haddock.

NB: When a reexport renames a module, that renaming is *not* accessible
from inside the package.  This is not so much a deliberate design choice
as for implementation expediency (reexport resolution happens only when
a package is in the package database.)

TODO: Error handling when there are duplicate reexports/etc is not very
well tested.

This is a first step towards eliminating `default-extensions` in favour of
per-file declared `{-# LANGUAGE ... #-}` pragmas.

This corresponds to the RC of the soon-to-be Cabal 1.20 release

One noteworthy change is the removal of the `--with-ranlib` flag
requiring a small adaptation in the GHC build system.

Moreover two new licences were added, MPL and BSD2.

 Cabal-1.20 now
allows to strip libraries as well, this doesn't work well with
`ghc-cabal copy` being fed a `":"` strip-command argument which was
simply ignored in the past. The current code tries to retain this
semantics as backward compat. However, this needs more investigation as
I'm not sure if/why the `test_bindist` step doesn't want the libraries
to be stripped on installation.

Apart from bumping build-dep version bounds, `ghc-cabal` is adapted to
some minor Cabal API changes, and `bin-package-db` is made aware of
Cabal's recently added AGPL licence support.
