#6003: ghci should complain when the user imports non-existent modules

------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
I was surprised today when I tried to import a module that wasn't
installed locally and ghci didn't issue a warning so I assume it loaded. I
didn't even notice that the prompt didn't change. I tried to use functions
in the module I thought was imported and that's how I learned it didn't
actually succeed at the import.
Here is an example to reproduce what I saw:
{{{
$ ghci
GHCi, version 7.4.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help
Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.
Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done.
Loading package base ... linking ... done.
Prelude> import Control.Monad.Pizza
Prelude>
}}}
Thanks!
