Implement the UnliftedDatatypes extensionwip/unlifted-data
GHC Proposal: 0265-unlifted-datatypes.rst Discussion: https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/265 Issues: https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/-/issues/19523 Implementation Details: Note [Implementation of UnliftedDatatypes] This patch introduces the `UnliftedDatatypes` extension. When this extension is enabled, GHC relaxes the restrictions around what result kinds are allowed in data declarations. This allows data types for which an unlifted or levity-polymorphic result kind is inferred. The most significant changes are in `GHC.Tc.TyCl`, where `Note [Implementation of UnliftedDatatypes]` describes the details of the implementation. Fixes #19523.
