CodeTools: Dotted unit name supporting
This is a continuation of work on support for dotted unit names (mostly #40596 (closed) since it got too large).
As a side task, problems with & in identifier names and renaming units via the refactoring function [F2] are considered.
Originally based on the already outdated patch 0001-All-dotted-branch-synchronized-BETA.patch (for 473cc202) by @WooBean007. New versions of the patch can be found under the first comment in the issue.
