Move package `array` to GitHub

Recently we found array build failed on older ghcs, it is because an MR about one year ago introduced an import that only works for newer base packages. See details here.

To prevent this from happening again, I’ll add a CI file to make the package compilable while committing code. As the maintainer of the array, I’m going to migrate array from GitLab to GitHub to reduce my maintenance burden.

Please let me know if there is any necessity on GitLab.

There’s none. If you need special runners, I have arm64 linux and FreeBSD runners connected to the Haskell github org.

I’m curious, what about GitHub do you find particular better than GitLab?

Thanks! I think default runners currently is enough for package array, we haven’t heard any platform issues yet.

As for me, it’s a bit hard to find runners.

Is the move complete? Should future issues and PRs be made on GitHub or GitLab?

Yes, please continue on GitHub.
