haskell.packages.ghc914: jailbreak several pkgs maintained by phadej 

All of these packages have unnecessarily strict upper bounds on core
packages. This is known and documented in the linked issues. However,
phadej has asked Hackage trustees not to revise these bounds.

phadej seems to be working on adding support for QuickCheck 2.17 and GHC
9.14 to quickcheck-instances and is blocking all other maintenance work
on that. QuickCheck 2.17 is not necessary for GHC 9.14 support as shown
by our 9.14 package set which is using QuickCheck 2.15 at the moment.

We may want to think about making these jailbreaks global even since
these deliberate delays happen basically with every GHC release.
