Fix Quick Start Tutorial for GHC 7.10 #89

@ghost

Description

Expand the code examples and add explanations, so that the tutorial's examples can be compiled without errors with GHC 7.10.

In the current state it is neccessary to either add type annotations or language pragmas (both of which are not given/explained in the tutorial) at various points in the tutorial. For Haskell beginners this might be very non-trivial to figure out.

From a didactic point of view it might be useful to add and explain type annotations to make it work, rather than language pragmas, as the types support the understanding for what's going on and they might be needed anyways when continuing to work with Diagrams. Language pragmas, however, seem quite black-magicky.
