[ANNOUNCE] Experimental Windows GHC 8.10.5 binary release. Supports Haskell DLLs.

[kyra]

An experimental Windows GHC 8.10.5 64-bit Visual C/Native Windows SDK 
binary compatible distribution is released.

Features:

Supports Haskell DLLs. Both static and dynamic compilers are shipped.

Uses LLVM tools exclusively, hence linking is blazing fast compared to 
the stock distro.

Is position-independent (can be loaded to any address, not only the 
lower 2GBs) and generates position-independent code.

Based on and targets Microsoft Visual C runtime and native Windows SDK.

The "full" variant of distro contains 438 extra prebuilt packages and a 
set utilities,
including not only the mandatory cabal, stack, Happy and Alex, but also 
linters, formatters, preprocessors,
and even beasts like pandoc, haskell-language-server and even Agda compiler.
