Comment (by bgamari):

 First, I suspect it would be best to build on top of the new Hadrian build
 system as we are nearly ready to phase-out the `make`-based build system.

 My vision for this is to upload tarballs containing the built
 documentation alongside the binary distribution that CI already produces.
 See `.circleci/config.yml` to see how we binary distribution upload works.

 The question then is what we do with the tarballs after they have been
 uploaded. If we just wanted to keep
 http://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/doc up-to-date then we could just
 have a cron job that periodically downloads and extracts the latest
 tarball.
