RFC: Switch from wl-pprint-text to prettyprinter

[cocreature]

prettyprinter is a fairly recent but (in my experience) very solid library that aims to consolidate the various libraries for prettyprinting that we have in the Haskell ecosystem. I’ll leave it to the README to give a detailed comparison.

I’ve been switching most of my projects over to prettyprinter but logging-effect is one of the packages that still uses wl-pprint-text. Would you be open to switching to prettyprinter? I’d be happy to try and provide a PR in that case. Ofc I also realize that you probably have quite a bit of code that relies on logging-effect and given that this would be a breaking change I can completely understand if you’re not too keen on switching :)

I'm a big fan of prettyprinter. Definitely open to this.
