Importing the types without the functions seems like people would
still end up depending on `free` to get those (or copy/paste the
definitions). I can understand not wanting to pull the `MonadFree`
typeclass and related functions into `base`, but there are a lot of
functions in `free` which don't depend on that but are still useful.
