Issue Description:
Sometimes, one doesn't have the right import in a file, but the compiler doesn't provide a suggestion on which module to import (at least, with Xcode 13.1), it just complains that a type isn't in scope. It would be nice to do better than that, and provide a fix-it which goes hey, would you like to import MyKit.
I understand this is probably not desirable to do out-of-the-box because of perf, one would need to build an index of some kind for the entire SDK...
Without going the whole "let's index the SDK" route, another option for a v1 of this would be to look at the imports which are already present in other files, and suggest adding an import accordingly. As a bonus, this approach would work with non-SDK modules too.
