Improve pretty-printing of types
* The main change is to suppress printing (in types) of
kind for-alls
kind applications
The new flag -fprint-explicit-kinds prints them as before
(by analogy with the existing -fprint-explicit-foralls)
* I also took advantage of the fact that SDoc now has access
to DynFlags, to tidy up the way in which explicit for-alls
are printed. Instead of passing a boolean flag around, we
now simply consult the DynFlags. Much neater.
I still need to add documentation for the flag
