ghc: revert "propagate 'gmp' and 'ncurses' to ensure users can link the 'haskeline' library, etc."
I thought that [1] could be fixed by ensuring that ncurses is available in the environment (because ghc exports it as a propagateBuildInput), and indeed that change fixed *some* build failures we've had before. However, the same error still occurs with other packages, like hledger [2] and Agda [3]. Frankly, I have no idea why those packages fail and others don't. But clearly the fix was inadequate, so I'm reverting commit a8076c76.
