Is there a reason that the latest current versions of GHC don't come up in ghcup tui? #1156

I thought that ghcup would offer the latest (bugfix) ghcs, but it doesn't seem to. The current stable releases are

[9.10.1](https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_9_10_1.html)
[9.8.3](https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_9_8_3.html)
[9.6.6](https://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_9_6_6.html)

ghcup tui offers:

|✗   GHC   9.10.1     latest,base-4.20.0.0          hls-powered                                                        │

│✔✔  GHC   9.4.8      recommended,base-4.17.2.1     hls-powered 

So no 9.8.3, eg.
