Update documentation regarding derivability of Generic1

The documentation for Generic1 says:

Representable types of kind * -> * (not yet derivable).

I'm not sure if this feature is planned or not, but it would certainly be nice to have. Without it, I suspect the Generic1 representation will not see much use, and it doesn't make much sense to write generic functions for it.
