    Add -package-id, improve package shadowing behaviour and error messages · 03bb97e0

    A few changes bundled together here:
    
     - Add -package-id flag, like -package but takes an
       InstalledPackageId as an argument (mainly for Cabal)
       (docs to follow)
    
     - Fix the shadowing behaviour: if we end up with
       two packages with the same name/version that came from
       different package databases, then one will shadow the
       other.  This may mean we have to disable other packages
       that depended on the now-shadowed package.  Lots of
       refactoring to ensure that we can get reasonable diagnostics when
       this happens
    
    <command line>: cannot satisfy -package shadowdep: 
        shadowdep-1-XXX is unusable due to missing or recursive dependencies:
          shadow-1-XXX
        (use -v for more information)
