Add "since" information to LANGUAGE extensions in GHC user guide

If one wants to support older versions of GHC, it is hard to find out whether one can use a certain LANGUAGE extension. One has to go to older versions of the GHC manual to find out whether the corresponding documentation was already there, or browse release notes. Requests:

  1. Document for new LANGUAGE extensions that they are available since version 7.10. For example, by adding "(Since GHC 7.10)" to the heading of the new feature.
  2. Do this also for the previous LANGUAGE extensions, by adding e.g., "(Since GHC 7.6)" etc.
