 Add strict ver. of (<$>): (<$!>) to Control.Monad

 A strict (<$>) has been proposed numerous times. The first time
 around[1] by Johan Tibell, and the last time around[2] by David
 Luposchainsky. David's thread was able to avoid The Bikeshed Monster,
 and his (<$!>) proposal received unanimous +1s all around.

 This addresses #9099.
