Add a Troubleshooting section to the README

Good to help people help themselves!

I wanted to populate the 'Common issues' section with some more
examples, any ideas?

+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common issues
+
+#### Difficulties with Stack and `Paths_` modules
+
+These are known to be somewhat buggy at the moment: https://github.com/haskell/haskell-language-server/issues/478.
+
+### Troubleshooting the server
+
+#### Diagnostic mode
+
+The `haskell-language-server` executable can be run in diagnostic mode, where it will just try to load modules from your project, printing all of its output to stdout.
+This makes it much easier to see what's going on and to diagnose build-related problems.
+
+To do this, simply run the executable directly from your shell in the project root.
+You can either run it without an argument, in which case it will load random modules, or with a path, in which case it will load modules in that file or directory.
+
+#### Examining the log
+
+Most clients will launch `haskell-language-server` with `--logfile` to make it write a log file.
+Please consult the documentation for your client to find out where this is (or how to set it).
+
+The log will contain all the messages that are sent to the server and its responses.
+This is helpful for low-level debugging: if you expect a certain action to happen, you can look in the log to see if the corresponding messages are
+sent, or if there are any errors.
+
+To get a more verbose, also pass `--debug` to the executable.
+
+### Troubleshooting the client
+
+Many clients provide diagnostic information about a LSP session.
+In particular, look for a way to get the status of the server, the server stderr, or a log of the messages that the client has sent to the server.
+For example, `lsp-mode` provides all of these (see its [troubleshooting page](https://emacs-lsp.github.io/lsp-mode/page/troubleshooting/) for details).
+
+The most common client-related problem is the client simply not finding the server executable, so make sure that you have the right `PATH` and you have configured
+it to look for the right executable.
