#387: `cabal check` does not complain about incorrect `Cabal-Version` field

----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
The validity of the `Cabal-Version` field is not verified in any way,
making it all too easy to accidentally use a feature which isn't actually
present in all the versions of Cabal the field allows.
Sounds like something `cabal check` should do.
