Make BCO# lifted
In #17424 Simon PJ noted that there is a potentially unsafe occurrence of unsafeCoerce#, coercing from an unlifted to lifted type. However, nowhere in the compiler do we assume that a BCO# is not a thunk. Moreover, in the case of a CAF the result returned by `createBCO` *will* be a thunk (as noted in [Updatable CAF BCOs]). Consequently it seems better to rather make BCO# a lifted type and rename it to BCO.
