fix: symbol clashes between packages (#11082)
This PR prevents symbol clashes between (non-`@[export]`) definitions
from different Lean packages.

Previously, if two modules define a function with the same name and were
transitively imported (even privately) by some downstream module,
linking would fail due to a symbol clash. Similarly, if a user defined a
symbol with the same name as one in the `Lean` library, Lean would use
the core symbol even if one did not import `Lean`.

This is solved by changing Lean's name mangling algorithm to include an
optional package identifier. This identifier is provided by Lake via
`--setup` when building a module. This information is weaved through the
elaborator, interpreter, and compiler via a persistent environment
extension that associates modules with their package identifier.

With a package identifier, standard symbols have the form
`lp_<pkg-id>_<mangled-def>`. Without one, the old scheme is used (i.e.,
`l_<mangled-def>`). Module initializers are also prefixed with package
identifier (if any). For example, the initializer for a module `Foo` in
a package `test` is now `initialize_test_Foo` (instead of
`initialize_Foo`). Lake's default for native library names has also been
adjusted accordingly, so that libraries can still, by default, be used
as plugins. Thus, the default library name of the `lean_lib Foo` in
`package test` will now be `libtest_Foo`.

When using Lake to build the Lean core (i.e., `bootstrap = true`), no
package identifier will be used. Thus, definitions in user packages can
never have symbol clashes with core.

Closes #222.
