This is a step towards removing the dependency on hackage.nix.

Instead of looking up the source for a tool using hackage.nix it lets make-install-plan to it using the cabal planner (based on an extra-packages: entry in a cabal.project file).

This seems to break stackProject. With:

let haskellSrc = builtins.fetchTarball "https://github.com/input-output-hk/haskell.nix/archive/cc140d188d53692a43a86cc7e4849702a3f04389.tar.gz";
    haskellNix = import haskellSrc {};
    pkgs = import
        haskellNix.sources.nixpkgs
        haskellNix.nixpkgsArgs;
    project = pkgs.haskell-nix.stackProject {
      src = pkgs.haskell-nix.cleanSourceHaskell {
        name = "blah";
        src = ./.;
      };
      modules = [
        { enableProfiling = true;
          enableLibraryProfiling = true;
        }
      ];
    };
in project.shellFor {
    exactDeps = true;
    tools = {
      cabal = "latest";
      hlint = "latest";
      haskell-language-server = "latest";
    };
}

I get

$ nix-shell

I noticed the same -- this breaks Haskell.nix for my Stack-based project.
