The GHC 8.6.3 Windows bindist tarball contained both
`ghc-8.6.3/bin/haddock-8.6.3.exe` as well as `ghc-8.6.4/bin/haddock.exe`.
However, the 8.6.4 tarball only contains the executable with a version
suffix `ghc-8.6.4/bin/haddock-8.6.4.exe`. This broke some users, e.g., the
Shake CI
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/ndmitchell/shake/builds/22909548#L971 but
also `rules_haskell` which assume the existence of that executable.
Assuming this change was not intentional, it would be great if we could
get a bindist that contains the unversioned haddock.exe.
Not sure if this is related to #16398.
