Description

As it stands, it seems that Haddock docs show up for boot libraries, and the project being developed, but not for third party libraries from Hackage.

I would guess (without really knowing anything about the current implementation) that if the dependencies have been installed with documentation (e.g. `documentation: True` in the global cabal config file), then the logic wouldn't be that different to the way it currently works for boot libraries - i.e. HLS just needs some way to know the path to the `.haddock` files.

I'd be keen to take a look into this if no one currently is. But I would need some pointers.
