* Refactor and doc package handling, module name mangling
* Consolidate, de-duplicate and extend package handling
* Alter how duplicate module names of a package are handled
* Alter how module names are mangled
* Fix crash when another package is named 'stdlib' (test case added)
* Doc what defines a package in the manual
Modules with duplicate names within a package used to be given 'fake'
packages to resolve conflicts. That prevented the ability to discern if
a module belonged to the current project package or a foreign package.
They now have the proper package owner and the names are mangled in a
consistent manner to prevent codegen clashes.
All module names are now mangled the same. Stdlib was treated special
before, but now it is same as any other package. This fixes a crash
when a foreign package is named 'stdlib'.
Module mangling is altered for both file paths and symbols used by the
backends.
Removed an unused module name to package mapping that may have been
intended for IC. The mapping was removed because it wasn't being used
and was complicating the issue of package modules with duplicate names
not having the proper package owner assigned.
* Fix some tests
* Refactor `packagehandling`
* Remove `packagehandling.withPackageName` and its uses
* Move module path mangling from `packagehandling` to `modulepaths`
* Move `options.toRodFile` to `ic` to break import cycle
* Changed import style to match preferred style

(cherry picked from commit d30c6419a0)
There was only a single space character between the warning and its description, so it shows up as part of the name (in bold) and with no description.
Copied the way hotCodeReloading was formatted, with the description in a new line.
* nimRawSetjmp: support Windows
Using `_setjmp()` directly is required to avoid some rare (but very
annoying) exception-related stack corruption leading to segfaults on
Windows, with Mingw-w64 and SEH.
More details: https://github.com/status-im/nimbus-eth2/issues/3121
Also add "nimBuiltinSetjmp" - mostly for benchmarking.

* document some std library evolution policies
In wanting to improve the standard library, it's helpful to have a set
of principles and guidelines to lean back on, that show how to introduce
such improvements while at the same time considering existing users of
the language.
A key idea behind documentation of this sort is that it should highlight
a path forwards in making changes rather than trying to prevent them,
and although the current snippet does include some language for what one
shouldn't do, it also shows a few options for what one can do.
This is a riff on https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/18468 mainly
based on what helps enable to the use of Nim productively in
environments and teams where the priority and focus is not always on the
tool (Nim in this case) but rather on the codebase itself, and its use
by end users.
We use similar guidance documentation to help coordinate the code of the
teams using Nim in https://status-im.github.io/nim-style-guide/ where it
is applied not as law, but rather as recommendations for the default
approach that should be considered first.
