This does many meta-things, but changes no functionality:
- get rid of stack, and use just cabal with a stackage snapshot instead
(why did I ever think stack was a good idea?)
- update the stackage snapshot to something halfway recent
- thus making builds work on nixpkgs-23.05 (current stable)
- separating out packages into their own cabal files
- use the GHC2021 set of extensions as default
- very slight code changes to make things build again
- update readme accordingly
- stylish-haskell run
