[foreign] RFR 8216268: duplicate declaration handler has to be a tree visitor

Great work.

I like it that:

1) It moves duplicate detection logic out of TypedefHandler (which is 
there for another reason)
2) and also out of ASMCodeFactory

One element of risk that I note here, is that the new code isn't exactly 
a functional replacement for the old one, in that some of the checks 
(e.g. those in ASMCodeFactory) used to be on a per-header basis, while 
with your new visitor pass, everything is applied on the header trees 
produced by the parser. I can imagine situations in which the old code 
did not detect conflict (e.g. A$foo vs. B$foo) whereas the new approach 
detects the conflict and generates only one class.

I think the new approach is probably for the best and more in sync with 
where we need to be longer term anyway. But just want to double check on 
that.

Other than that, +1
