#5027: Remove ability to use ghc-binary

---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
There have been a couple of cases recently where people have been using
the `ghc-binary` package. We should either:
* ship `binary` instead. Then people can legitimately use it, and as a
bonus, as GHC moves to using `binary` the `Binary` instances for GHC's
types will become available
* Add something to GHC to allow us to ''really'' hide packages, so people
can't use it
We'll have to make some sort of decision about `hoopl`, too.
