This handles namespacing of functions. Parsing and semantics are changed
significantly, while lowering works without changes. Variables can't be
namespaced yet because they're dealing with patterns, and I didn't dig
through that code.
Most of the logic is done through the new name declaration stack, which
is necessary because semantics isn't quite sure where the declaration
name ends. It'd be complex for parsing to send a signal about this,
probably involving node variants and rewrites of the tree, and this
solution seems to work well. Unfortunately this means a new stack, but
that may be inevitable due to the extra information needing to be
tracked.
Note this doesn't deal with scoped lookups of non-namespace things,
which we'll need for generics. That'll probably involve pushing resolved
scopes onto a stack (or maybe just setting a singleton value?) to affect
contextual name lookup. But, I think the basics are there to make it
work when we can test the behavior.
This renames "designator expression" to "qualified expression" and adds
"qualified declaration" in order to use terminology more consistent with
C++.
Namespaces will probably need to be considered for name mangling down
the line, but this still uses the basic name.
This PR renames parse nodes on a Name/NameExpression taxonomy. NameExpressions occur in a name context. The difference is that in non-expression contexts it's useful to return the identifier / string ID for adding to name lookup, whereas in expression contexts it's useful to return the resolved node ID for consistency with other expressions.
In the code, I do note SelfValueName is returned in the expression context: I'd expect this to change, as `self` in `[self: Self]` versus `self.Foo()` will probably be best handled similarly to the above. That means that, in the proposed taxonomy, both `SelfValueName` and `SelfValueNameExpression` will exist in order to assist semantics.

This is just a simplification: I think these different forms are getting in the way more than they're helping, particularly as I was looking into namespace functionality. The handling in semantics can be identical, providing a more uniform behavior.
This builds on #2814 by adding the test framework to the toolchain. On Linux, this is 7s -> 4s for me. #2811 has more detailed timing for the explorer, which also had more dramatic changes because it's about 3x more tests run in 2x as many ways (6x total).

`self` wasn't being handled in expression logic, only parameter logic. This is needed for `self.x`.
Also renames SelfDeducedParameter to SelfIdentifier because it's parsed fairly consistently with Identifier; this better represents the situations where `self` will need to be handled, it's where `Identifier` is allowed (although `Identifier` could also refer to a type... but I still think `SelfDeducedParameter` is a more difficult to understand name).
We could similarly add others -- this is intended to make it easy to add more that parse essentially the same.
The functionality expected is that types will use GetDeclarationContext in order to error on certain functionality in the declaration scope loop. e.g., with how constraints and interfaces currently don't allow definitions.
I've only moved out `package` because it's only valid on the top line. It might still be good to parse it later, but with slightly different logic because it would always be an error, and the declaration context isn't quite the right framing for that.
Also unifies some errors with `fn`.
