Starting with the 9.4 release, GHC provides system-cxx-std-lib, a
"virtual" package which can be used to reliably link against the
system's C++ standard library implementation.

See GHC #20010.

@Bodigrim, I am still putting this through its paces but the hope is to be able to ship this with 9.4, insulating users (including text) from the changes that the Windows toolchain switch brought.

@bgamari looks awesome. Please ping me once the patches are backported to GHC 9.4, I'll give it a try.

I have backported the remaining necessary patches to 9.4.1 in !8642; binary distributions are available from https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/pipelines/54514.
