{- | Convenience wrapper which multiple Fortran tag-kinded intrinsic types fit.

A type @ft@ takes some type @fk@ of kind @k@, and we are permitted to move the
type between the term and type levels using the included singleton instances.

For example, integers are kinded with type level @FTInt@s. So we can define an
integer with an existential ("unknown") kind with the type @'SomeFKinded' FTInt
FInt@. By pattern matching on it, we recover the hidden kind tag (as well as
obtaining the value).
