     Re-work the naming story for the GHCi prompt (Trac #8649)

Thanks for going to the trouble of cleaning this up. I was never happy with how this all worked.

The prefix colon in the name (":Interactive") was supposed to avoid the possibility of clashing with a user-defined module, rather like the ":Main" pseudo-module. Could that be a problem with "Ghci1" and so on? What about the "interactive" package? Perhaps these ought to be renamed to something that can't be user-defined?

Cheers,
Simon
