Description

The following line

```haskell
import Foo ((#|), (#%), (|#), (%#))
```

is formatted by stylish-haskell as follows:

```haskell
import Foo (( #% ), ( #| ), (%#), (|#))
```

This probably has something to do with `-XMagicHash`, even though `-XMagicHash` isn't enabled anymore.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with the Haskell import example and inspect the formatter's handling of operator imports, especially the `#`-prefixed operators and any MagicHash-related logic. Done means formatting preserves the operators without inserting spaces inside them, while retaining the existing import formatting.
