To help make the Cabal codebase more accessible,
expandResponse in Cabal/Distribution.ResponseFile
received Haddock documentation.

The defaultMainHelper function in Cabal/Distribution.Simple
received hidden Haddock documentation.

In the hidden module cabal-install/Distribution.Client.Main,
the Haddock documentation for main was expanded, additional
commenting explaining the response file compatibility
code in main was added, and documentation for
mainWorker was added.

Bump base in cabal-dev-scripts.cabal

This became necessary after an upgrade to GHC 9.4, which, apparently,
has a subtle change in how -W/-w-related things get interpreted.

Bump base in cabal-dev-scripts.cabal. We are now using GHC 9.4.7 in CI, which ships with base 4.17.2.0. I am bumping all the way to <4.19 after testing everything compiles with GHC 9.6.3 (base-4.18.1.0).
