[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#778714: use system libsqlite instead of embedded code copy

[Joey Hess]

Source: haskell-persistent-sqlite
Version: 1.3.0.5-1+b1
Severity: normal

There is an embedded copy of sqlite in this library. It's currently
rather old, and even the latest persistent-sqlite from hackage embeds
an out of date version.

sqlite sometims has bugs. It may even have security bugs. Avoiding
using this embedded code copy would avoid stumbling over old bugs as I
did today, and avoid security update pain.

There's a systemlib build flag in the cabal file, so this should be easy
to do.
