[arch-haskell] How cblrepo decides when to add 'haskell-' prefix?

I believe (though someone else may correct me here), that the "haskell-" is
only prepended to the package name if the package has a library component.
If the package comprises only executables, as in the case of yeganesh, then
it is left as-is.
