 Expose the StableName constructor

 * Move the definition of `StableName` from `System.Mem.StableName`
   to a new `GHC.StableName` module.

 * Expose the `StableName` data constructor from `GHC.StableName`.
   Once we have `UnliftedArray#`, this will enable `StableName`s to
   be stored in `UnliftedArray`s (from `primitive`) without unsafe
   coercions.
