This is a new flag that is checked to prevent the wrappers from adding
CFLAGS & LDFLAGS. It should be used sparingly but in the case of
Haskell packages, it is necessary to avoid hitting ARG_MAX limits.
Haskell has its own way of handling deps which is done in
generic-builder.nix. Skipping the {C,LD}FLAGS is a harmless way to
reduce ARG_MAX.
Related to PR #43713.

This is still a work in progress. Unfortunately it is a mass-rebuild so it could take a while. I am still waiting on building the stdenv. It should accomplish the same thing as PR #43713 with the upside of avoiding the need to move the ```--libdir`` flag.
