Description

### General summary/comments (optional)
Documentation states that "Known limitation on macOS: currently, stack --nix ghci fails on macOS, due to a bug in GHCi when working with external shared libraries.". But actually it works. At least on MacOS High Sierra (10.13.6).

### Steps to reproduce

For example:

1. stack --nix ghci

### Expected

Not to work as Documentation states. Just this paragraph from documentation has to be removed.

### Actual

It actually is working.

### Stack version

```
$ stack --version
Version 1.9.0.1, Git revision a2489de02cb1c7d28b74c69bc66d2402268ccb0a (6123 commits) x86_64 hpack-0.31.0
```

### Method of installation

* stack upgrade --binary-version 1.9.0.1
