The optional Qualifier function determines what prefix to attach to
package-level names, enabling clients to qualify packages in different
ways, for example, using only the package name instead of its complete
path, or using the locally appropriate name for package given a set of
(possibly renaming) imports.
Prior to this change, clients wanting this behavior had to copy
hundreds of lines of complex printing logic.
Fun fact: (*types.Package).Path and (*types.Package).Name are valid
Qualifier functions.
We provide the RelativeTo helper function to create Qualifiers so that
the old behavior remains a one-liner.

The loader package now loads, parses, and type-checks a whole program
from source, and that is all.
Also:
- simplified loader logic
- ssa.Create is gone; use ssautil.CreateProgram.
- ssautil.LoadPackage renamed to BuildPackage.
It is now independent of go/types' Import hook and the Packages map.
- ssadump: -importbin flag removed.
The value of this flag was that it caused the tool to print IR
for only a single package; this is now the normal behaviour.

...since the zero value is more useful by far.
This is a breaking API change, obviously. (One or two tests in this
CL have intentional been left using the zero value, i.e., they now
load source.)
