Since notice in instance declarations.

Dear all,
What you think, if instead of /Since: 4.8.0.0/, we start to use /Since: base-4.8.0.0/.
Adding the package name seems redundant, but on the other hand some haddock
instance lists look weird. For example in Cabal Distribution.Version docs [1] has:
NFData Version -- /Since: 1.3.0.0/
Luckily Cabal is in 1.2x, otherwise /Since: 1.3.0.0/ next to the NFData Version could be
very confusing.
What you think about this new practice?
Greetings,
Oleg Grenrus

P.S. also the [1] doesn’t show orphan `Binary Version` instance provided. I hope it was
a temporary glitch in haddock.
