`stack-2.15.5` does not `cabal install` with GHC 9.8.2

[sol]

Steps to reproduce

$ cabal update && cabal install
...
src/Codec/Archive/Tar/Utf8.hs:34:27: error: [GHC-88464]
    Variable not in scope: entryTarPath :: Entry -> TarPath
    Suggested fixes:
      • Perhaps use one of these:
          record field of Entry ‘Tar.entryTarPath’ (imported from Codec.Archive.Tar.Entry),
          ‘Tar.entryPath’ (imported from Codec.Archive.Tar.Entry),
          ‘entryPath’ (line 34)
      • Add ‘entryTarPath’ to the import list in the import of
        ‘Codec.Archive.Tar.Entry’
        (at src/Codec/Archive/Tar/Utf8.hs:13:1-80).

Works fine with ghc-9.8.1. I haven't further investigated.

@sol, noted - but stack-2.15.5 is intended to be built only with GHC 9.6.4. See https://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/CONTRIBUTING/#backwards-compatability, its stack.yaml and cabal.project (provided for convenience). Once there is an LTS snapshot for GHC 9.8.x, I'll move Stack on to that version of GHC.

[mpilgrem]

I think this is because stack-2.15.5 is built against tar-0.5.1.1 (from LTS 22.7) and tar-0.6.0.0 introduced some breaking changes. As it will help users of Cabal, I could introduce an upper bound on the tar dependency.

Also made package revisions for recent versions of stack on Hackage.

@mpilgrem thanks.
