Less generalized I/O #120

Closed snoyberg closed 7 years ago

snoyberg commented 7 years ago

Don't use IOData in conduit-combinators and classy-prelude, instead specializing to ByteString, thereby avoiding issues of:

Implicit, incorrect character encodings
Lazy I/O
Inefficient data representation
