ghc-9.2.3-src.tar.xz doesn't include ./configure

Summary

Previous releases of ghc included pre-generated configure files making it somewhat easier to build OS packages. 9.2.3 only includes the configure.ac files.

Steps to reproduce

$ xzcat ghc-9.2.3-src.tar.xz | tar tf - | grep 9.2../configure
ghc-9.2.3/configure.ac
$ xzcat ghc-9.2.2-src.tar.xz | tar tf - | grep 9.2../configure
ghc-9.2.2/configure
ghc-9.2.2/configure.ac
$ sha256 *src.tar.xz
SHA256 (ghc-9.2.2-src.tar.xz) = 902463a4cc6ee479af9358b9f8b2ee3237b03e934a1ea65b6d1fcf3e0d749ea6
SHA256 (ghc-9.2.3-src.tar.xz) = 50ecdc2bef013e518f9a62a15245d7db0e4409d737c43b1cea7306fd82e1669e

Expected behavior

Include the ./configure files.
