Add `pkgs.haskell.lib.readDirectory` utility
This adds a `readDirectory` utility that can be used to "slurp" a directory
full of `cabal2nix`-generated files and transform them into a Haskell package
override set. The main use of this is so that users don't have to write:
```
{ overrides = self: super: {
foo = self.callPackage ./path/to/foo.nix { };
bar = self.callPackage ./path/to/bar.nix { };
...
};
}
```
Instead, they can write:
```
{ overrides = pkgs.haskell.lib.readDirectory ./path/to;
}
```
This is a an alternative to `packageSourceOverrides` which primarily addresses
the following use cases:
* The desired package is not yet available in `all-cabal-hashes` (perhaps the
user is pinned to an older revision of `nixpkgs`)
* The default `cabal2nix` invocation used by `packageSourceOverrides`
does not use the desired `cabal2nix` flags
* The user wants to avoid the use of import-from-derivation
