Description

You can install ghcup from packages as well, but yes - I think simply doing `pkg install ghc` is the most straightforward way.

I'm maintaining all the Haskell stuff for FreeBSD, so if something breaks just ping me.

Research direction

Start by locating the FreeBSD CI workflow and its current Haskell toolchain installation step. Check how the workflow invokes pkg and replace the installation approach with the requested GHC/Cabal package installation. The work is done when the FreeBSD CI job installs the toolchain successfully and completes.
