Description

It's a shame that if we're building our own pretty printer that wants nice `Show` instances we have to import from the internal API. What do you think about adding some Doc/SimpleDoc producing functions to the public API?

Research direction

Start by inspecting the public and internal APIs in the pretty-simple repository and locate the existing layoutString implementation. Determine which Doc or SimpleDoc-producing functions the public API should expose, then verify that a custom pretty printer can use them without importing internal modules. Done means the intended functions are publicly importable and covered by the repository's existing checks.
