An unpacked validation data type

The Validation type and associated operations.

This library is intended to be a drop-in replacement for Data.Valiation. To shave off pointer chasing, it uses -XUnboxedSums to represent the Validation type as two machine words that are contiguous in memory, without loss of expressiveness that Validation provides.

This library provides pattern synonyms Failure and Success, which allow users to pattern match on an Unpacked Validation in a familiar way.

Functions are also provided for converting an Unpacked Validation to the validation library's These, and vice versa.

This library is in alpha, and the internals are likely to change.
