Wasn't immediate to get to the error from the warning
```
doc/cabal-project.rst:2: WARNING: Duplicate ID: "cfg-field-type".
```
(wrong line number, "cfg-field-type" is not greppable).

Found four variants, picked the first:

  1. ``PATH``
  2. `PATH`
  3. ``$PATH``
  4. :envvar:`PATH`

The last (4) produced an error with sphinx:
```

Both `stack` and other package managers like `cargo` have an `--open`
flag for the common case of opening documentation locally for
inspection or reference. This patch adds such a flag, which when set
tries to open the HTML file associated with the generated
documentation, using `open` on macOS, `start` on Windows, and
`xdg-open` on all other Unices.

Fixes #7366.

Removes the special case for installing the Haskell toolchain on Windows, because ghcup now also supports Windows.

* WIP: Still need to update ghc to use the new `libraryDirsStatic` and
       `extraLibrariesStatic` fields in `InstalledPackageInfo` for linking.
* WIP: Adding -L paths to .a libs in .conf files will likely increase nix
       closure size for dynamically linked Haskell packages because if pkg-config
       finds an `-a` file, the path to it will be remembered.
       (That only has an impact if the .a file is in a split-output from the .so file.)
       Perhaps we make the feature that `pkg-config --static` is called
       opt-outable.
       On the other hand Haskell libs always carry their .a files, so pulling
       a few system `.a` files more shouldn't make much of a difference.
       So this opt-out should probably be an extra feature for later, if at all.

With Backpack interoperability problems now resolved, the related warnings in
the documentation can probably be removed. [1]

Drops the sole warning located by a text search for "6005".

Use `hs-source-dirs` for the library and change the `other-modules`
names for the executables to avoid confusion.

Lowercase the `main-is` files to make it clear the filename need not be
a module name.

Add dependency on the internal library to the prog2 executable to
showcase common usage.

The simple package examples share module names among library and
executable components. To avoid potential confusion these have been
annotated to make it crystal clear the modules do not refer to the same
entities.

Motivation: I (simonmar) want to use hsc2hs with C++, which requires

```
hsc2hs-options: --cc=g++ --lflag=-lstdc++
```

We pass `hsc2hs-options` before or after `--cc` and `-lflag`,
depending on the version of `hsc2hs`.

I (phadej) added a tests:
- hsc2hs-options are passed to `hsc2hs` (but not to GHC e.g.).
- `--cc` has expected effect

`g++` tests doesn't seem to work on Windows, due mingw ncurses linkage
issue, https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/issues/3531
We also need non-ancient hsc2hs (>= 0.68).

- Resolve #6684:
- Resolve #6813: Update (and correct) source-repository-package documentation
