Provide option to show current module in ghci prompt without listing imported modules.

GHCi allows for %s in the prompt, which is replaced by the currently loaded module followed by all imported modules. However, my .ghci imports about a hundred modules, making the prompt way too long when I use %s. It would be useful to have an option for showing just the current module, and not all the imported modules.
