We currently have a fairly intricate way of running our PostgreSQL and MSSQL integration tests (not the API tests). By splitting them out, we can simplify this a lot. Most prominently, we can rely on Cabal to be our argument parser instead of writing our own.
We can also simplify how they're run in CI. They are currently (weirdly) run alongside the Python integration tests. This breaks them out into their own jobs for better visibility, and to avoid conflating the two.
The changes are as follows:
- The "unit" tests that rely on a running PostgreSQL database are extracted out to a new test directory so they can be run separately.
- Most of the `Main` module comes with them.
- We now refer to these as "integration" tests instead.
- Likewise for the "unit" tests that rely on a running MS SQL Server database. These are a little simpler and we can use `hspec-discover`, with a `SpecHook` to extract the connection string from an environment variable.
- Henceforth, these are the MS SQL Server integration tests.
- New CI jobs have been added for each of these.
- There wasn't actually a job for the MS SQL Server integration tests. It's pretty amazing they still run well.
- The "haskell-tests" CI job, which used to run the PostgreSQL integration tests, has been removed.
- The makefiles and contributing guide have been updated to run these.

Improvements to the Nix configuration so that macOS is supported.
Microsoft SQL Server is still not supported (yet; I have something in mind there), but the rest works. You can still use Homebrew to install the SQL Server drivers.
I had to make the following changes:
* I updated nixpkgs, because it's been a while.
* I made `ODBCINSTINI` optional so that it's not loaded on macOS, as it depends on `msodbcsql17`, which is broken on macOS.
* I upgraded OpenSSL.
* I set `DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH` on macOS so GHC finds OpenSSL; otherwise, it uses the wrong version of `libcrypto`, and fails with a fun error:
> WARNING: ghc is loading libcrypto in an unsafe way
* I patched GHC to fix compilation on macOS (copied from https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/149942).
To test this out, you can run `nix develop` (or install [direnv][] and add `use flake` to _.envrc.local_), and then try building HGE in the shell provided.
Fair warning: GHC needs to be built, and takes _aaages_ the first time. If this becomes useful to others, we can set up a shared cache.
