Resolve name collsion of `first` and `second` by Control.Arrow and Data.Bifunctor

[Alexandre Rodrigues]

Name collisions are always an issue, and I think you raise a valid point. However, in this case, does Haskell not already offer a solution? Qualified imports do add some overhead, but doing

```

import qualified Control.Arrow  as A

import qualified Data.Bifunctor as B

foo :: Foo

foo = f . A.first . g


baz :: Baz

baz = h . B.first . i

```

does not seem too difficult.

I had to import both Control.Arrow and Data.Bifunctor, and the name collision is annoying.



`first` and `second` from Data.Bifunctor should be given other names. I suggest (<$<) and (>$>), respectively.
