Release 2.10.0.0

[fendor]

Since GHC 9.8.3 has been published on the 20.10.2024, we need to do an HLS release to support the new GHC version.

Unless I am mistaken, the new release should be for the following GHC versions:

• 9.4.8
• 9.6.6
• 9.8.3
• 9.10.1

In particular, we dropped support for GHC 9.2 in #4326

I can take care of the release in the near future.

Before the release, we want to merge #4392

@hasufell Pinging you so you know we are planning a release soon ™️

I would really appreciate it if we could also get #4433 in.

[fendor]

Merging #4433 just before the release is quite risky as there is no time to do any dogfooding.
So I don't think we will wait for it if we don't manage to get enough reviews. I pinged a couple of potential reviewers, so perhaps.
As GHC 9.12 is planned to be released in November, there will be another HLS release soon after 2.10.0.0.

Has building with 9.8.3 been tested?: 2.9 fails for me with:

src/Development/IDE/GHC/Compat/Core.hs:712:10: error: [GHC-83865]
    ・ Couldn't match expected type: Maybe String
                  with actual type: Either

                                      (ghci-9.8.3:GHCi.RemoteTypes.RemotePtr

           pure res
    |
712 |     pure res
    |          ^^^

I should better file an issue I guess - I see in git it is currently conditional on ghc >= 9.11

CI still seems to be using 9.8.2.

@juhp No. Wait for 2.10.0.0.
