This patch collects a few improvements triggered by Trac #15696,
and fixing Trac #16029

* Stop making toCleanDmd behave specially for unlifted types.
  This special case was the cause of stupid behaviour in Trac
  #16029.  And to my joy I discovered the let/app invariant
  rendered it unnecessary.  (Maybe the special case pre-dated
  the let/app invariant.)

  Result: less special-case handling in the compiler, and
  better perf for the compiled code.

* In WwLib.mkWWstr_one, treat seqDmd like U(AAA).  It was not
  being so treated before, which again led to stupid code.

* Update and improve Notes

There are .stderr test wibbles because we get slightly different
strictness signatures for an argumment of unlifted type:
    <L,U> rather than <S,U>        for Int#
    <S,U> rather than <S(S),U(U)>  for Int
