Please review a small change to a poor warning message that is generated
in unusual circumstances. The circumstances are caused by using
--expand-requires and not having the source available for all the modules.
* The message incorrectly uses the simple name of a module instead of
the fully qualified name.
The fix is trivial: use the fully qualified name
* The message is too broad and says "module not found" when it really
means "source for module not found"
The message is improved
* The message may be unnecessarily repeated.
To minimize risk of a complicated solution, a simple cache is used
to track instances of the warnings to avoid duplicates.
In addition, a couple of inappropriate trailing periods are removed from
a couple of related messages.
Two tests are updated; one test is marked for this bug.
