This PR adds `.hs-boot` files to the list for Haskell. These files are more or less ordinary Haskell sources, but are used to break cycles in module imports, [as documented in the `ghc` user’s guide](https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/separate_compilation.html?highlight=circular#how-to-compile-mutually-recursive-modules). For the purposes of language statistics and syntax highlighting, they should absolutely be considered as Haskell.

I’ve added links to one, above, but I’m not sure if that’s what this item meant by “included.”
I’m not aware of anyone doing so, so I’m not sure that this applies.
