Support returning the modified PATH

[Neil Mitchell]

From https://github.com/digital-asset/ghcide/issues/294, if you stack install a package then any build tools (e.g. record-dot-preprocessor) seem to get put locally and added to the PATH locally by Stack. Maybe hie-bios needs to include that extra PATH information, so that tools building on it see the PATH too? Probably an additional field to ComponentOptions?

With recent stack versions, there is the command stack config env that prints the modified path. Could be useful for this!
Example output:

> stack config env

Can't we read PATH from the environment in the cabal wrapper program?

[fendor]

Indeed.

EDIT: I got sidetracked and forgot what I wanted to write and apparently pressed send by accident.
