 Make worker-wrapper optional

 Add -fworker-wrapper flag which enables the worker-wrapper transformation.
 It
 is implied by -O.

 The expected users of this flag, which includes myself, are GHC API users.
 In
 my Haskell-to-Hardware compiler, which uses the GHC API, I have seen no
 benifits of the worker-wrapper transformation. It does however induce
 longer
 compilation times.
