Re #7916: haddockumentation of Distribution.Types.VersionInterval.Legacy

This commit affects only comments and documentation comments.

- clarifies existing haddock for `Distribution.Types.VersionInterval.Legacy`
- emphasizes the mathematical structure: canonical Boolean algebra
- adds docs when they were missing
- add some asymptotic complexity estimates
- add comments in the code that explain its function

Note: this module is declared "legacy", but the documentation effort
here can be salvaged to non-legacy code once #7916 is resolved.

Fix scripts without an .hs or .lhs extension

* Pass such scripts with: -x hs script
* Disable extension check for scripts
* Disable running preprocessors for scripts because they're based on
  extension
* Add test case for script with no extension

Resolves #7910

docs: typo

Related: #7073
