bug#35743: indentation error

I learned about `guix import hackage --stdin`, and it turns out the problem is with bad indentation in the cabal file. (The offending line is indented by two spaces instead of four spaces for the block before.) It’s unclear to me whether this is a “valid” cabal file as it is.

As far as I can tell, `guix import hackage` imports the first revision of a hackage release. I suggest aiming to import the latest cabal revision from hackage, as already supported by haskell-build-system via the #:cabal-version argument. In the meantime, documenting this in the `guix import hac
