#7107: Don't remove -package-conf

Please keep `-package-conf` around as a (deprecated) alias for `-package-
db`. Its removal breaks scripts and the Cabal test suite. Removing it will
force all users of the old flag to have to write some code to detect which
GHC version is used and then pick a flag depending on that.
