• SR-898 Unresolvable "ambiguous for type lookup" error when using multiple modules

Issue Description:

Let's say I have an Objective-C TestModule that exports TestModule type (the same name). Now I import it to Swift project and want to use it with the TestModule namespace eg.

TestModule.Foo is a class from TestModule. I can use it without specifying the module namespace so Foo will work, but call to TestModule.Foo results in an error that Foo is not a member of TestModule.

I could import just this type specifying type:

import class TestModule.Foo

and that'd work, except when I just import the whole module

import TestModule

in this case (the most common case I'd say) I don't have a syntax to specify a call to TestModule.Foo properly.
