 *      special-purpose commands and variables for packages.  Also includes

 * TclGetNamespaceForQualName --
 *
 *	Given a qualified name specifying a command, variable, or namespace,
 *	and a namespace in which to resolve the name, this procedure returns
 *	a pointer to the namespace that contains the item. A qualified name
 *	consists of the "simple" name of an item qualified by the names of
 *	an arbitrary number of containing namespace separated by "::"s. If
 *	the qualified name starts with "::", it is interpreted absolutely
 *	from the global namespace. Otherwise, it is interpreted relative to
 *	the namespace specified by cxtNsPtr if it is non-NULL. If cxtNsPtr
 *	is NULL, the name is interpreted relative to the current namespace.
 *
 *	A relative name like "foo::bar::x" can be found starting in either
 *	the current namespace or in the global namespace. So each search
 *	usually follows two tracks, and two possible namespaces are
 *	returned. If the procedure sets either *nsPtrPtr or *altNsPtrPtr to
 *	NULL, then that path failed.
 *
 *	If "flags" contains TCL_GLOBAL_ONLY, the relative qualified name is
 *	sought only in the global :: namespace. The alternate search
 *	(also) starting from the global namespace is ignored and
 *	*altNsPtrPtr is set NULL. 
 *
 *	If "flags" contains TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY, the relative qualified
 *	name is sought only in the namespace specified by cxtNsPtr. The
 *	alternate search starting from the global namespace is ignored and
 *	*altNsPtrPtr is set NULL. If both TCL_GLOBAL_ONLY and
 *	TCL_NAMESPACE_ONLY are specified, TCL_GLOBAL_ONLY is ignored and
 *	the search starts from the namespace specified by cxtNsPtr.
 *
 *	If "flags" contains CREATE_NS_IF_UNKNOWN, all namespace
 *	components of the qualified name that cannot be found are
 *	automatically created within their specified parent. This makes sure
 *	that functions like Tcl_CreateCommand always succeed. There is no
 *	alternate search path, so *altNsPtrPtr is set NULL.
 *
 *	If "flags" contains FIND_ONLY_NS, the qualified name is treated as a
 *	reference to a namespace, and the entire qualified name is
 *	followed. If the name is relative, the namespace is looked up only
 *	in the current namespace. A pointer to the namespace is stored in
 *	*nsPtrPtr and NULL is stored in *simpleNamePtr. Otherwise, if
 *	FIND_ONLY_NS is not specified, only the leading components are
 *	treated as namespace names, and a pointer to the simple name of the
 *	final component is stored in *simpleNamePtr.
 *
 * Results:
 *	It sets *nsPtrPtr and *altNsPtrPtr to point to the two possible
 *	namespaces which represent the last (containing) namespace in the
 *	qualified name. If the procedure sets either *nsPtrPtr or *altNsPtrPtr
 *	to NULL, then the search along that path failed.  The procedure also
 *	stores a pointer to the simple name of the final component in
 *	*simpleNamePtr. If the qualified name is "::" or was treated as a
 *	namespace reference (FIND_ONLY_NS), the procedure stores a pointer
 *	to the namespace in *nsPtrPtr, NULL in *altNsPtrPtr, and sets
 *	*simpleNamePtr to point to an empty string.
 *
 *	If there is an error, this procedure returns TCL_ERROR. If "flags"
 *	contains TCL_LEAVE_ERR_MSG, an error message is returned in the
 *	interpreter's result object. Otherwise, the interpreter's result
 *	object is left unchanged.
 *
 *	*actualCxtPtrPtr is set to the actual context namespace. It is
 *	set to the input context namespace pointer in cxtNsPtr. If cxtNsPtr
 *	is NULL, it is set to the current namespace context.
 *
 *	For backwards compatibility with the TclPro byte code loader,
 *	this function always returns TCL_OK.
 *
 * Side effects:
 *	If "flags" contains CREATE_NS_IF_UNKNOWN, new namespaces may be
 *	created.
