Log live_bytes and heap_size as reported by GHC.Stats

A thread is spawned which at a prespecified interval will report the
live bytes and heap size at the last major collection.

Live bytes corresponds to how much live data a program has and should
match closely the value reported during heap profiling.

Heap size reports the total amount of memory the RTS is using, which
corresponds more closely to OS memory usage.

```
[INFO] Live bytes: 367.45MB Heap size: 676.33MB
```

Closes haskell#1493
