Status updates

[Simon Peyton Jones]

The obvious place to put it is on the "Status reports" page, which is one click from the side bar.  A new heading with link to the nightly builds or Travis or whatever, and some description about how to interpret the information you find.

| Drats, I forgot that. Here's where it is:
| 
| Go to the GHC Trac hompeage: https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ and
| scroll down just a tiny bit. There's a section called 'Nightly builds'
| with the updated link to the new UI, located on Gabor's server:
| http://haskell.inf.elte.hu/builders/
| 
| Simon, did we talk about adding this to the sidebar? Or maybe we should
| just highlight it on the front page a little more, and then link to it
| from somewhere else on the sidebar (like "Building Guide"
| links to the builder page).
