tests.cross.sanity: Add GHC to catch regressions

Browse Source 
This is to ensure that Haskell users on platforms that lack official
bindists still have a convenient means of getting GHC running natively.

In my admittedly somewhat limited testing on RISC-V, GHC 8.10.7 is able
to bootstrap native builds for 9.2.8 and 9.4.5. GHC 9.2.8 and 9.4.5 are
unable to bootstrap themselves and 9.6.2 when cross-compiled.

If you're looking at this commit to see whether you can safely upgrade
the compiler used here to remove 8.10, please try cross-compiling 9.0 or
later and then booting a native GHC with it.
