 Fix desugaring of bang-pattern let-bindings

 When implementing Strict Haskell, the patch 46a03fbe didn't faithfully
 implement the semantics given in the manual. In particular there was
 an ad-hoc case in mkSelectorBinds for "strict and no binders" that
 didn't work.

 This patch fixes it, curing Trac #11572.

 Howver it forced me to think about banged let-bindings, and I rather
 think we do not have quite the right semantics yet, so I've opened
 Trac #11601.
