Description

For example when I try to use `haskell-mode-jump-to-def-or-tag` on `map` function it only displays

> Defined in `GHC.Base'.

Is it possible to jump to source file instead?

Research direction

Start at the `haskell-mode-jump-to-def-or-tag` entry point and trace how a definition such as `map` is resolved to `GHC.Base`. Determine how the package source file could be located rather than only displaying the module name, and verify that jumping from the command opens the expected source location.
