Description

Some cleanup and needed changes:

• As usual after the release we need add new versions to Changelogs: https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-haskell-packages/pull/560
• Bump plutus dep to 1.16 #3871 did not include the necessary version bumps
• Dependency on plutus-core is redundant
• Update cabal and hls versions

Checklist

• Commit sequence broadly makes sense and commits have useful messages
• New tests are added if needed and existing tests are updated
• When applicable, versions are updated in .cabal and CHANGELOG.md files according to the
  versioning process.
• The version bounds in .cabal files for all affected packages are updated. If you change the bounds in a cabal file, that package itself must have a version increase. (See RELEASING.md)
• All visible changes are prepended to the latest section of a CHANGELOG.md for the affected packages. New section is never added with the code changes. (See RELEASING.md)
• Code is formatted with fourmolu (use scripts/fourmolize.sh)
• Cabal files are formatted (use scripts/cabal-format.sh)
• hie.yaml has been updated (use scripts/gen-hie.sh)
• Self-reviewed the diff

The plutus-core dependency was removed from these packages: alonzo, alonzo-test and core.
I wonder why we also updated the cabal versions of: babbage, conway and binary in addition to the three for which plutus was removed?

@teodanciu The answer is in the PR description:
