fixes#24998
Basically it retraces back to the situation before
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/18366 and
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/18362, i.e.
```nim
import fuzz/a
import fuzz/a
```
```nim
import fuzz/a
from buzz/a
```
```nim
import fuzz/a except nil
from fuzz/a import addInt
```
All of these cases are now flagged as invalid and triggers a
redefinition error, i.e., each module name importing is treated as
consistent as the symbol definition
kinda annoying for importing/exporting with `when conditions` though
ref https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/18762https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/20907
```nim
from std/strutils import toLower
when not defined(js):
from std/strutils import toUpper
```
todo: We can also give a deprecation message for `ltPtr`/`lePtr`
matching for cstring in `magicsAfterOverloadResolution`
follow up https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/24942
fixes#23114
As in https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/22074, expressions in
bracketed emit are strictly typechecked, this PR applies the same check
for symbols in asm statements in order to keep them consistent.
**TODO**
- [x] fixes changelog
With the new option `nimPreviewVtables`, `methods` are confined in the
same module where the type of the first parameter is defined
- [x] make it opt in after CI checks its feasibility
## In the following-up PRs
- [ ] in the following PRs, refactor code into a more efficient one
- [ ] cpp needs special treatments since it cannot embed array in light
of the preceding limits: ref
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/20977#discussion_r1035528927; we
can support cpp backends with vtable implementations later on the
comprise that uses indirect vtable access

fixes#22286
ref https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/10642
For backwards compatibilities, we might need to keep the changes under a
preview compiler flag. Let's see how many packags it break.
**TODO** in the following PRs
- [ ] Turn the `var T` destructors warning into an error with
`nimPreviewNonVarDestructor`
