Description
This issue is a followup to #3781. The main dependency solver modules were moved into a separate package (`cabal-install-solver`), but some functions that act as an API are still in `cabal-install`. The dependency solver unit tests use that API, so they are also in `cabal-install`.
This change is much simpler now that the top-down solver was removed in #3598 and support for multiple solvers was removed in #9282.
Most of the remaining dependency solver API is in [Distribution.Client.Dependency](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/blob/master/cabal-install/src/Distribution/Client/Dependency.hs), including `resolveDependencies` and `DepResolverParams`:
