haskell: tune generic-builder for more parallel build performance

Browse Source 
Raise the maximum number of cores used for parallel building from 4 to 16.
Increase the size of the allocation area for GHC's garbage collector from 1 MiB
to 64 MiB.

See https://www.twitch.tv/videos/611899011 for the motivation for this change.
