Subject: [PATCH] Add an importModule function.

This function allows us to import a module inside the TcRn monad and
properly handles (family) instances. This is needed for working with the
tfp package.

+-- | This function imports the module with the given name, for the renamer /
+-- typechecker to use. It also imports any "orphans" and "family instances"
+-- from modules included by this module, but not the actual modules
+-- themselves. I'm not 100% sure how this works, but it seems that any
+-- functions defined in included modules are available just by loading the
+-- original module, and by doing this orphan stuff, any (type family or class)
+-- instances are available as well.
+--
+-- Most of the code is based on tcRnImports and rnImportDecl, but those
+-- functions do a lot more (which I hope we won't need...).
