 Don't add targets that can't be found in GHCi

 When using the :add command in haxlsh/ghci, a module/file that can't
 be found is still added to the list of targets, resulting in an error
 message for the bad module/file for every subsequent usage of the
 command. The add command should verify that the module/file can be
 found before adding it to the list of targets.

 Also add a ":show targets" command to show the currently added list of
 commands, and an ":unadd" command to remove a target.

 Test Plan:
 Add a new GHCi testcase that checks that :add doesn't remember either
 files or modules that could not be found, and that both the new :show
 and :unadd commands work as expected.
