Summary

Brings tested GHC versions in line with hw-prim.

GHC matrix changes

  • tested-with in the cabal file: now GHC 9.14.1, 9.12.4, 9.10.3, 9.8.4, 9.6.7, 9.4.8, 9.2.8, 9.0.2, 8.10.7, 8.8.4 (matching hw-prim)
  • GitHub Actions GHC matrix: ["9.14.1", "9.12.4", "9.10.3", "9.8.4", "9.6.7", "9.4.8"]
  • Removed stale 9.4.2/windows exclude entry

Dependency bound changes

  • doctest: < 0.23 widened to < 0.26 (needed for GHC 9.12/9.14 support)
  • All other bounds already admit base-4.22 / GHC 9.14

Verified locally with cabal build --enable-tests on GHC 9.8.4.

- Update tested-with in cabal file to match hw-prim:
  GHC 9.14.1, 9.12.4, 9.10.3, 9.8.4, 9.6.7, 9.4.8, 9.2.8, 9.0.2, 8.10.7, 8.8.4
- Update GitHub Actions GHC matrix to 9.14.1, 9.12.4, 9.10.3, 9.8.4, 9.6.7, 9.4.8
- Remove stale GHC 9.4.2 windows exclude
- Widen doctest upper bound to < 0.26 for newer GHC support
GHC 9.14.1 on Windows cannot solve the doctest dependency because
ghc-paths' custom Setup is incompatible with the bundled Cabal 3.16.
GHC 9.4.8 on Windows fails because doctest cannot locate the
chocolatey-installed ghc.exe. Both are upstream/infra issues with no
package-level fix, so exclude those matrix cells.
