A new AirAggregate parser is utilized for each package import. This
prevents us from moving the index from `Asg` onto `AirAggregateCtx` because
the index would be dropped between each import.
This allows re-using that context and solves for problems that result from
attempting to do so, as explained in the new
`resume_previous_parsing_context` test case.
But, it's now clear that there's a missing abstraction, and that reasoning
about this problem at the topmost level of the compiler/linker in terms of
internal parsing details like "context" is not appropriate. What we're
doing is suspending parsing and resuming it later on for another package,
aggregating into the same destination (ASG + index). An abstraction ought
to be formed in terms of that.

This requires the name as part of the package definition, which in turn
removes a state (and all the combinations resulting from it) from
AirAggregate, which results in significant complexity reduction for a very
complex part of the system.
Pushing this complexity outward results in a reduction of overall
complexity, and obviates the question of where NIR will receive a generated
name.

This reverts commit da7fe96254e425bc7b75f8cf454465b71e27e372.
I'm a fool---this would be pursuant to a future plan that removes AirIdent
opaque tokens. But for now, I need it on IdentDecl and others, which
currently has a `Source` (that I want to go away, as just mentioned), which
contains the same information.
So maybe more to come on this...

This allows for a canonical package name to be optionally provided to
explicitly resolve a reference against, avoiding a lexical lookup.
This change doesn't actually utilize this new value yet; it just
retains BC. The new argument will be used for the linker, since it already
knows the package that defined an identifier while reading the object file's
symbol table. It will also be used by tamec for the same purposes while
processing package imports.

-- squashed with --
tamer: asg::air::ir::RefIdent: CanonicalName=SPair
The use of CanonicalName created an asymmetry between RefIdent and
BindIdent. The hope was to move CanonicalName instantiation outside of AIR
and into NIR, but doing so would be confusing and awkward without doing
something with BindIdent.
I don't have the time to deal with that for now, so let's observe how the
system continues to evolve and see whether hoisting it out makes sense in the
end. For now, this works just fine and I need to move on with the actual
goal of finishing package imports so that I can expand templates.
