[kernel] Remove section paths from `KerName.t`
We remove sections paths from kernel names. This is a cleanup as most of the times this information was unused. This implies a change in the Kernel API and small user visible changes with regards to tactic qualification. In particular, the removal of "global discharge" implies a large cleanup of code. Additionally, the change implies that some machinery in `library` and `safe_typing` must now take an `~in_section` parameter, as to provide the information whether a section is open or not.

+- Kernel names no longer contain a section path. They now have only two
+ components (module path and label), which led to some changes in the API:
+
+ KerName.make takes only 2 components
+ KerName.repr returns only 2 components
+ KerName.make2 is now KerName.make
+ Constant.make3 has been removed, use Constant.make2
+ Constant.repr3 has been removed, use Constant.repr2
