[ghc-steering-committee] Proposal: accept "add incomplete-uni-patterns and incomplete-record-updates to -Wall"

[Simon Marlow]

I propose that we accept the proposal

  add incomplete-uni-patterns and incomplete-record-updates to -Wall

https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/71

<https://github.com/ghc-proposals/ghc-proposals/pull/71>
Both warnings are avoidable and considered bad style, which makes them
appropriate to include in -Wall.

The reason that -Wincomplete-uni-patterns wasn't originally made part of
-Wall was due to worries about noisiness (
https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4905), but that's not a valid
concern. -Wall is intentionally a moving target, if you want to stay
Wall-clean you accept that new compiler releases may entail some work.

Basically I think this is a no-brainer.

Cheers
Simon
