Can you also update the README section "Alternative type names" where Branded redirects to Opaque instead of Tagged? |

This PR may be premature, so I'm happy to let it sit for a bit. But, the basic idea is that:
Taggedtypes are strictly more powerful thanOpaqueones, thanks to their ability to more naturally support multiple tags.Opaquehas always been misnamed (since the underlying, untagged type isn't hidden at all, which is a critical property of opaque types in other languages).OpaqueandUnwrapOpaqueshould be removed.
