Comment (by ekmett):
I support moving a minimal flavor of `Bifoldable`/`Bitraversable` in.
They don't have any legacy users to consider in terms of any bad
interactions with different `Monad`'s lack of implementation of `(*>)` vs.
`(>>)`. In fact I'd go so far as to remove `bisequenceA`, `bimapM` and
`bisequence` from the class entirely in anticipation of doing the same to
`Traversable`, and as a much smaller, low-impact laboratory for exploring
that change.
