Abstract:
  Resolves references by setting TPasElement.CustomData as TResolvedReference.
  Creates search scopes for elements with sub identifiers by setting
    TPasElement.CustomData as TPasScope: unit, program, library, interface,
    implementation, procs

Works:
- built-in types as TPasUnresolvedSymbolRef: longint, int64, string, pointer, ...
- references in statements, error if not found
- interface and implementation types, vars, const
- params, local types, vars, const
- nested procedures
- nested forward procs, nested must be resolved before proc body
- program/library/implementation forward procs
- search in used units
- unitname.identifier
- alias types, 'type a=b'
- type alias type 'type a=type b'
- choose the most compatible overloaded procedure
- while..do
- repeat..until
- if..then..else
- binary operators
- case..of
  - check duplicate values
- try..finally..except, on, else, raise
- for loop
  - fail to write a loop var inside the loop
- spot duplicates
- type cast base types

Notes:
 Functions and function types without parameters:
   property P read f; // use function f, not its result
   f.  // implicit resolve f once if param less function or function type
   f[]  // implicit resolve f once if a param less function or function type
   @f;  use function f, not its result
   @p.f;  @ operator applies to f, not p
   @f();  @ operator applies to result of f
   f(); use f's result
   FuncVar:=Func; if mode=objfpc: incompatible
                  if mode=delphi: implicit addr of function f
   if f=g then : can implicit resolve each side once
   p(f), f as var parameter: can implicit
