Multiple home units and Backpack together

Multiple Home Units opens up some more natural implementation strategies for backpack but currently

Opportunities

  • Unit instantiations can be expressed more naturally in terms of unit dependencies rather than shoe-horned into the module graph.

Known Problems

  • Hole units assume a singular home unit (see the special case for loadInterface for isHoleModule).
  • No tests at all combining MHU/Backpack

All we need is a backpack lover to try and wrangle things so that things work nicely!
