base: displayException for SomeAsyncException

Provide a better implementation of `SomeException` for
`SomeAsyncException`.
The previous, implicit, implementation, would not use the
`displayException` of the exception wrapped by `SomeAsyncException`.

Implements CLC-Proposal#309

Closes #25513

+  * Define `displayException` of `SomeAsyncException` to unwrap the exception.

   * Restrict `Data.List.NonEmpty.unzip` to `NonEmpty (a, b) -> (NonEmpty a, NonEmpty b)`. ([CLC proposal #86](https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/86))
   * Modify the implementation of `Control.Exception.throw` to avoid call-sites being inferred as diverging via precise exception.
