Cabal's parser has been rewritten in terms of Parsec (which is not enabled yet in Cabal-2.0 by default, but can be enabled by a cabal flag). The plan for Cabal is to drop support for the non-parsec parser, so we need to prepare GHC to cope with new situation. However, this means that lib:Cabal requires three new library dependency submodules, - parsec - text - mtl What complicates matters is that we need to build `ghc-cabal` early on during the bootstrap phase which currently needs to invoke `ghc --make` directly. So these additional dependencies need to be integrated into the monolithic `ghc --make` invocation which produces the `ghc-cabal` executable. Test Plan: `./validate --fast` passed Reviewers: austin, bgamari Subscribers: erikd, phadej, rwbarton, thomie Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D3757
