Brings tested GHC versions in line with hw-prim.

Changes

  • tested-with: 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 (was 9.2.2 .. 8.6.5)
  • CI GHC matrix: ["9.14.1", "9.12.4", "9.10.3", "9.8.4", "9.6.7", "9.4.8"] (was ["9.8.1", "9.6.3", "9.4.8", "9.2.8", "9.0.2", "8.10.7"])
  • Widened bounds for newer GHCs: doctest < 0.26 (was < 0.23), hedgehog < 1.8 (was < 1.5)

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

- Update tested-with to 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 (in line with hw-prim)
- Update CI GHC matrix to 9.14.1, 9.12.4, 9.10.3, 9.8.4, 9.6.7, 9.4.8
- Widen doctest upper bound to < 0.26
- Widen hedgehog upper bound to < 1.8
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.
