Update packages from 23.05 to 23.11

[jonathanlking]

Updates nixpkgs to 23.11.

• nix build --impure --expr '(import ./survey { useArchiveFilesForTemplateHaskell = true; }).working'
• nix build --impure --expr '(import ./survey { }).working'

Completely succeed.

• nix build --impure --expr '(import ./survey { compiler = "ghc963"; }).working' succeeds except for:
  • ShellCheck and stack (transitively) fail to build due to mtl < 2.3.
  • darcs fails due to unix <2.8.

Unfortunately the GHC 9.6 releases with enableShared = false, which is set through useArchiveFilesForTemplateHaskell = true, are still broken. I think this could be the same issue as https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/208959#issuecomment-1646098256?

$ nix build --impure --expr '(import ./survey { compiler = "ghc963"; useArchiveFilesForTemplateHaskell = true; }).haskellPackages.ghc'

GHC 9.8.1 does seem to work though, i.e. nix build --impure --expr '(import ./survey { compiler = "ghc981"; useArchiveFilesForTemplateHaskell = true; }).haskellPackages.ghc'.

Relating to https://github.com/nh2/static-haskell-nix/pull/125#issuecomment-1873539559

This still fails on NixOS 24.05 with ghc965:

... -A haskellPackages.hello --arg useArchiveFilesForTemplateHaskell true

fails with:

ghc-musl> Finished in 7m31sError, rule finished running but did not produce file:

This still fails on NixOS 24.05 with ghc965:

Fixed by @NorfairKing's patch in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/317175

We cherry-picked it onto the nixos-24.05 branch
