 Use Cxt for deriving clauses in TH (#10819)

 Summary:
 Deriving clauses in the TH representations of data, newtype, data
 instance, and newtype instance declarations previously were just [Name],
 which didn't allow for more complex derived classes, eg. multi-parameter
 typeclasses.

 This switches out [Name] for Cxt, representing the derived classes as
 types instead of names.

 Test Plan: validate
