1.8.0

1.8.0

This release includes some interesting new features:

• You can now pass custom environment variables to the lsp server
  with the haskell.serverEnvironment config option per project basis,
  thanks to @jacobprudhomme.
  • For example: "haskell.serverEnvironment": { "XDG_CACHE_HOME": "/path/to/my/cache" }
• With this version the extension will try to use the newer lsp server version
  which supports the ghc used by the project being loaded, thanks to @mduerig
  • WARNING: This will suppose it will use an older version than the latest one,
    without its features and bug fixes.
• The extension has lot of more log traces now, which hopefully will help to
  identify the cause of issues
