acme-zero: The absorbing element of package dependencies

Cabal package dependencies form a commutative monoid with an absorbing element. They satisfy the following axioms:

For all dependencies a, b and c,

(a , b) , c = a , (b , c)

In fact, the Cabal syntax does not even allow you to use the parentheses for this reason.

For all dependencies a and b,

a , b = b , a

For all dependencies a,

acme-one , a = a
a , acme-one = a

Depending on acme-one has no additional effect.

For all dependencies a,

acme-zero , a = acme-zero
a , acme-zero = acme-zero

Depending on acme-zero in addition has the same effect as only depending on acme-zero.

Cabal package dependencies form a commutative monoid with an absorbing element. They satisfy the following axioms:

Associativity

For all dependencies a, b and c,
```
(a , b) , c = a , (b , c)
```
In fact, the Cabal syntax does not even allow you to use the parentheses for this reason.
Commutativity

For all dependencies a and b,
```
a , b = b , a
```
Identity element

For all dependencies a,
```
acme-one , a = a
a , acme-one = a
```
Depending on acme-one has no additional effect.
Absorbing element

For all dependencies a,
```
acme-zero , a = acme-zero
a , acme-zero = acme-zero
```
Depending on acme-zero in addition has the same effect as only depending on acme-zero.
