I was updating the Commentary (commentary/libraries.md) and found this
text:
To find out which packages are currently zero-boot packages, do
the following in a GHC build:
```wiki
$ make show VALUE=BOOT_PKGS
```
Since `make` will go away eventually, I wanted to tell people how to
discover zero-boot packages using Hadrian.
