[ refactor ] Introducing Namespace and ModuleIdent (#631)
Until now namespaces were stored as (reversed) lists of strings.
It led to:

* confusing code where we work on the representation rather than say
  what we mean (e.g. using `isSuffixOf` to mean `isParentOf`)

* potentially introducing errors by not respecting the invariant cf.
  bug report #616 (but also name generation in the scheme backend
  although that did not lead to bugs as it was self-consistent AFAICT)

* ad-hoc code to circumvent overlapping interface implementations when
  showing / pretty-printing namespaces

This introduces a Namespace newtype containing non-empty lists of
strings. Nested namespaces are still stored in reverse order but the
exposed interface aims to support programming by saying what we mean
(`isParentOf`, `isApproximationOf`, `X <.> Y` computes to `X.Y`, etc.)
irrespective of the underlying representation.
