The whicherrs query mode takes the position of an error and returns the set of constants, globals and types visible from within the scope of the error being queried.
It is meant to be used as a shortcut to find out which errors should be handled for a given functions call.

Command set:
- what: an extremely fast query that parses a single
file and returns the AST stack, package name and the
set of query modes that apply to the current selection.
Intended for GUI tools that need to grey out UI elements.
- definition: shows the definition of an identifier.
- pointsto: the PTA features of 'describe' have been split
out into their own command.
- describe: with PTA stripped out, the cost is now bounded by
type checking.
Performance:
- The importer.Config.TypeCheckFuncBodies predicate supports
setting the 'IgnoreFuncBodies' typechecker flag on a
per-package basis. This means we can load dependencies from
source more quickly if we only need exported types.
(We avoid gcimport data because it may be absent or stale.)
This also means we can run type-based queries on packages
that aren't part of the pointer analysis scope. (Yay.)
- Modes that require only type analysis of the query package
run a "what" query first, and restrict their analysis scope
to just that package and its dependencies (sans func
bodies), making them much faster.
- We call newOracle not oracle.New in Query, so that the
'needs' bitset isn't ignored (oops!). This makes the
non-PTA queries faster.
Also:
- removed vestigial timers junk.
- pos.go: existing position utilties split out into own file.
Added parsePosFlag utility.
- numerous cosmetic tweaks.
+ very basic tests.
To do in follow-ups:
- sophisticated editor integration of "what".
- better tests.
- refactoring of control flow as described in comment.
- changes to "implements", "describe" commands.
- update design doc + user manual.

This CL is mostly a renaming s/json/serial/, abstracting the
oracle package away from any particular data syntax. (The
encoding/* machinery is very clean; clearly I should have
structured it this way from the outset.)
Supporting XML then becomes a one-liner in cmd/oracle/main.go.
Also: call MarshalIndent(), not Marshall() then Indent().
