Description

Hi,

I have a big project 300 modules and `cabal haddock` takes minutes to run, but I am interested in refreshing docs for a single module. I don't see any filter flag which fits the goal.

Research direction

Start by tracing the `cabal haddock` command and its existing option handling. Check how module selection is currently represented, then define the single-module behavior and verify that documentation generation for a large project can target only the requested module.
