    The typechecker's notion of "boxed" versus "unboxed" kind should
    really have been "unlifted" versus "lifted" instead.  It is illegal to
    unify an unlifted (but boxed) type with a polymorphic type variable,
    since an unlifted/boxed type is always assumed to be a pointer to the
    object itself, never a thunk or indirection.
    
    This commit removes isUnboxedType, and renames a bunch of things that
    were previously boxed/unboxed to unlifted/lifted.
