Parse the name of a declaration as a sequence of `NameQualifier`s --
which have a name, possibly parameters, and a trailing period --
followed by a name and possibly parameters. This prepares us for parsing
declarations of members of generic classes and similar cases, but
actually supporting such member redeclarations is left to a future
change.
We previously required functions to have parameters, but no longer do,
following the direction of #3848. Cases like namespaces that can't
actually have parameters are now diagnosed in check instead of in parse.

When we expect a semicolon, we should be able to provide more standard
recovery.
Note this affects a test of `base`, but it looks like a partial
improvement (the prior line was moving too far). Still, it looks like
recovery isn't handling `{}` quite right. I'm not trying to address that
here though -- leaving a TODO.
This is something I noticed working on
https://github.com/carbon-language/carbon-lang/pull/3884; I think we
have more functions named Diagnose* at present than Emit* or Report*, so
just trying to consolidate. Note a couple Diagnose* functions do a
little more validation, but maybe those should actually be renamed away
(zygoloid had mentioned wanting to generally split out diagnostics to
their own function, and then we'd have it be a more common pattern).
Adds `BindAlias` with a hybrid of `BindName` and `NameRef` semantics. I
think it's slightly closer to `BindName` because it introduces a name,
so I'm going more in that direction. This also matches the need for
`bind_name_id` with imports on enclosing scopes.
Note, only things that look like a name reference are being allowed on
the RHS of `alias`. This includes builtins that look like name
references, such as `bool`, but not ones that turn into values
underneath, such as `false`.
