Extensible Hints for diagnostic messages
This commit extends the GHC diagnostic hierarchy with a `GhcHint` type, modelling helpful suggestions emitted by GHC which can be used to deal with a particular warning or error. As a direct consequence of this, the `Diagnostic` typeclass has been extended with a `diagnosticHints` method, which returns a `[GhcHint]`. This means that now we can clearly separate out the printing of the diagnostic message with the suggested fixes. This is done by extending the `printMessages` function in `GHC.Driver.Errors`. On top of that, the old `PsHint` type has been superseded by the new `GhcHint` type, which de-duplicates some hints in favour of a general `SuggestExtension` constructor that takes a `GHC.LanguageExtensions.Extension`.
