#210: Enable access to the x- extension fields, as simple [(String, String)]
name-value pairs

------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
The .cabal file format allows custom fields beginning with "x-". This
should be useful for many as yet unthought of extensions, experiments and
integration with other systems.
However currently the Cabal library api does not provide access to these
fields. This should be added, as the subject says as a simple list of
[(String, String)] name-value pairs.
