[bug#52784] [PATCH 0/5] Update XMonad (and add new dependencies)

[John Kehayias]

Hello,

Incoming are patches to update XMonad and ghc-xmonad-contrib to the new 
release, 0.17.0. This required some new Haskell packages and minor changes to 
xmonad. I've tested this builds but haven't tried running the newer versions 
(currently away from my main Guix computer). I also updated xmobar (again, 
untested beyond building).

Note that this new version has breaking configuration changes, detailed in 
their announcement: https://xmonad.org/news/2021/10/27/xmonad-0-17-0.html  Is 
that worth a news entry for guix pull? It has been a long time since xmonad 
released a new version, for those that stay on the stable release.

John
