[Haskell-cafe] Many packages blocked on Stackage nightly for GHC 8.2.1

Please be advised that many packages were dropped from the Stackage nightly
build plan in order to arrive at a successful build with the new ghc. (Note
that this does not affect the build plans for LTS 9.) This is to be
expected whenever ghc gets a major version bump. For details, see:
https://github.com/fpco/stackage/blob/master/MAINTAINERS.md

We have attempted to contact package authors whose packages were dropped.
However, comprehensive notification is not fully automated, and there may
be many who have not been directly contacted. You can check your section of
build-constraints.yaml, as well as stackage.org/nightly, to see which of
your packages are currently absent from the build plan.

You may restore your packages to the nightly build plan (once they are
buildable with ghc 8.2.1) in the same way they were added: by opening a PR,
uncommenting your packages in build-constraints.yaml.

Thank you for your efforts to keep the Haskell ecosystem up to date.
