Research direction

Start with the brick-3.0 changelog and review the listed bhoogle, hledger-iadd, hledger-ui, and tricorder package bounds. Update the relevant Stackage package constraints to place an upper bound on brick, then verify that the affected package entries no longer accept the incompatible release.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
