hledger-install

A lot of specialised knowledge is still needed to be sure of successfully building and installing hledger in all cases. For example: running stack setup if you don't have a suitable version of ghc.. installing with your current global resolver to minimise rebuilding.. unless it's too old, in which case use the (appropriate) latest resolver.. always use ghc 8.0.2+ on osx sierra.. don't try to install hledger-ui on windows.. etc.

This installer script tries to automate the installation of stack and then hledger, as reliably and quickly as possible, on POSIX systems. (Windows systems have binaries and don't need this.)
