Comment (by waern):
We might not need to store anything in the .haddock files if we can
reconstruct all declarations from the `TyThings` available in the .hi
files. We already convert instances using a conversion function `toHsType
:: Type -> HsType Name`. We could try to write a conversation function
`toHsDecl :: TyThing -> HsDecl Name`.
The downside of this approach is that we loose the original declaration
style. For example, we don't know if a data type was declared using GADT-
style syntax (with a 'where' clause), or normal style.
