#393: Allow --preference= flags for soft constraints

---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
`cabal install` now uses soft preferences from a `preferred-versions` file
in the hackage index. It would sometimes be useful to also be able to
specify these on the command line.
It shouldn't be too hard since the solver already accepts such soft-
constraints.
