     Allow deriving Generic1

     This completes the support for generic programming introduced
     in GHC 7.2. Generic1 allows defining generic functions that
     operate on type containers, such as `fmap`, for instance.

     Along the way we have fixed #5936 and #5939, allowing
     deriving Generic/Generic1 for data families, and disallowing
     deriving Generic/Generic1 for instantiated types.

     Most of this patch is Nicolas Frisby's work.
