    Introduce `Distribution.Compat.Prelude.Internal` + WARNING · 4c730f58
    Herbert Valerio Riedel authored
    This unexposes `Distribution.Compat.Prelude` again, and adds
    an exposed `.Internal` module which reexports the `.Prelude` module with
    an attached module-level `WARNING` pragma.
    
    This way users are discouraged to use this in `Setup.hs` files as they'd
    see compile warning like:
    
        Foo.hs:19:1-55: warning: [-Wdeprecations]
          Module ‘Distribution.Compat.Prelude.Internal’:
            This modules' API is not stable. Use at your own risk, or better yet, use @base-compat@!
    
    In `cabal-install` we import the `.Internal` module exactly once, and
    use -Wno-deprecations to suppress that the warning of that single
    import.
