// Functionality to generate the fully-qualified names of QualTypes,
// including recursively expanding any subtypes and template
// parameters.
//
// More precisely: Generates a name that can be used to name the same
// type if used at the end of the current translation unit--with
// certain limitations. See below.
//
// This code desugars names only very minimally, so in this code:
//
// namespace A {
//   struct X {};
// }
// using A::X;
// namespace B {
//   using std::tuple;
//   typedef tuple<X> TX;
//   TX t;
// }
//
// B::t's type is reported as "B::TX", rather than std::tuple<A::X>.
//
// Also, this code replaces types found via using declarations with
// their more qualified name, so for the code:
//
// using std::tuple;
// tuple<int> TInt;
//
// TInt's type will be named, "std::tuple<int>".
//
// Limitations:
//
// Some types have ambiguous names at the end of a translation unit,
// are not namable at all there, or are special cases in other ways.
//
// 1) Types with only local scope will have their local names:
//
// void foo() {
//   struct LocalType {} LocalVar;
// }
//
// LocalVar's type will be named, "struct LocalType", without any
// qualification.
//
// 2) Types that have been shadowed are reported normally, but a
// client using that name at the end of the translation unit will be
// referring to a different type.
//
