Temporarily rely on lts-7.24 for cabal-install and the helper binaries #288

Closed jship closed 6 years ago

This PR gets the installer working again, per discussion over in #282.

Relying on lts-7.24 is a bit of a hack, but would rather get the installer working again now and we come up with a better solution later.

Special thanks to @bidhan-a! @bidhan-a added support to selectively not bail out of the whole installer if a stackInstall fails and added a link for users to get more info on installing ghc-mod after the fact.

Note that we recently merged #276, but the dependency solving using #276 from my testing using lts-10.5 was choking up.

Also should note that I have only tested this on OS X, stack 1.6.3.
