Cabal 1.24 branch created

[Mikhail Glushenkov]

Hi *,

I've just created the 1.24 branch. I've also uploaded release
candidates of Cabal and cabal-install 1.24 to Hackage:

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/Cabal-1.24.0.0/candidate/Cabal-1.24.0.0.tar.gz
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/cabal-install-1.24.0.0/candidate/cabal-install-1.24.0.0.tar.gz

Unless major bugs will be discovered in these release candidates, this
is what will become the final 1.24 release.

Please test and report any problems you find!
