Proposal: add Bounded instances for Maybe and Either

We can write
instance Bounded a => Bounded (Maybe a) where
minBound = Nothing
maxBound = Just maxBound
instance (Bounded a, Bounded b) => Bounded (Either a b) where
minBound = Left minBound
maxBound = Right maxBound
While Bounded intentionally does not have an Ord superclass, I think it's
worth mentioning that these are the instances that arise naturally from the
Ord instances for the types in question.
