Historically, the ASG was better described as a "dependency graph",
containing only identifiers (which are simply called "symbols" in the
XSLT-based compiler). Consequently, it was appropriate for the graph to
have operations specific to identifiers. (Indeed, that's the only type of
object the graph supported.)
Much has changed since then. This cleans things up, and makes parenting
identifiers to root an _explicit_ operation. This will make it easier to
move forward with handling of scope, and importing identifiers into
packages, and removing `Source`, and so on.
