Description
To replicate:
1. don't have `hasktags` in path
2. `(setq haskell-tags-on-save t)`
3. Go to a Haskell file and save it
4. check `*Messages*`
```
xargs: hasktags: No such file or directory
Tags generated.
```

Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing the haskell-tags-on-save behavior when a Haskell file is saved and checking how the hasktags command result is reported in *Messages*. Reproduce the missing-hasktags case, then verify that a failed command no longer produces the "Tags generated." success message.
