Be able to use the `stack` executable in path

See original GitHub issue

Hi,

In the same spirit as https://github.com/rikvdkleij/intellij-haskell/issues/485 could the intellij-haskell plugin use the stack executable in path? Or at least make it possible!

This is for the same reason of using Nix (in my case, we package a custom Stack executable where Nix options are all passed). Currently I have to configure an ugly path like /nix/store/g14h563bs6r1s9vrd1dgrald6pg2895q-stack/bin/stack, but this path may change whenever I change some configuration in my stack wrapper…

AFAICT this would be the last bit to have a better support for Nix with Intellij 😅

Cheers!

The only solution which i can implement is to create in Haskell Settings an flag which indicates to use the stack exe in path (with some validation). So this is a workaround. It will ignore the stack path in Haskell Stack SDK.
