#2330: ghc-pkg should not report duplicate depends

{{{
$ ghc-pkg field regex-base-0.72.0.1 depends
depends: base-3.0.1.0 array-0.1.0.0 base-3.0.1.0 bytestring-0.9.0.1
}}}
Note the `base-3.0.1.0 base-3.0.1.0`. This is clearly silly. It causes
problems for Cabal. Although we can easily work around this using nub it'd
be better if duplicate depends were never reported or better yet rejected
or eliminated at package registration time.
(I'm not sure how it ended up this way, I don't think Cabal makes package
registration files with duplicate depends)
