[ghc-steering-committee] Committee Review #314: Enable `-Wnoncanonical-monad-instances` and `-Wnoncanonical-monoid-instances` by default

[Spiwack, Arnaud]

I am absolutely not opposed to this proposal. In current code, it's
probably not a good idea to define `return` or `mappend` anyway. So I
should certainly not be counted as blocking acceptance.

I just would have liked a bit of clarity about the context, which I feel
I'm very much missing.
