getOrElse instance method on either

[wennergr]

:: Either a b ~> b -> b

Returns the right value if the instance is a Right, otherwise the provided
default value will be returned.

How about fromEither :: b -> Either a b -> b instead, as proposed in sanctuary-js/sanctuary#130? This would be consistent with S.fromMaybe. Consistency between ramda-fantasy and Sanctuary seems valuable given the goal to merge ramda-fantasy and sanctuary-types (once the latter exists).

closing in favor of fromEither as @davidchambers suggested
