 Strictly speaking, it is already possible to do this since
 includes/rts/Flags.h exports RtsFlags, which can be accessed with a mini
 wrapper function. We should add this wrapper function so we can import it,
 and then write code which reads out the contents of all the various
 parameters so that users can introspect this at runtime. Maybe put them in
 the GHC.RTS module.
