Hey there! We're happy users of rel8 in our effect library atelier, thanks for the work you've put into it!

While trying to support GHC 9.14 I hit a dependency issue with it so I thought I'd contribute a fix.

The tests passed locally and nix flake check too. I also added a changelog following what was done for 9.12 but let me know if there's anything else I have to do.

Closes #402


GHC 9.14 moved binding type variables in constructor patterns from TypeApplications to the TypeAbstractions extension, so Rel8.Statement fails to compile with 'Illegal invisible type pattern'. Enable TypeAbstractions there.

semialign 1.4 makes Unzip a superclass of Semialign, so the internal 'First' vectorizer newtype needs an Unzip instance.

Also widen the base upper bound to < 4.23 to admit base 4.22 (GHC 9.14).
