 Permit empty closed type families

 Fixes #9840 and #10306, and includes an alternative resolution to #8028.
 This permits empty closed type families, and documents them in the user
 guide. It updates the Haddock submodule to support the API change.

 Test Plan: Added `indexed-types/should_compile/T9840` and updated
 `indexed-types/should_fail/ClosedFam4` and `th/T8028`.
