    user-guide: fix examples of ghci commands
    
    Fix examples of ghci commands:
      * correct typos
      * add top-level binding without let statement
      * modify Time.getClockTime to Data.Time.getZonedTime
      * modify Directory.setCurrentDirectory
      * modify ghc version number
    
    Test Plan: build
