[PATCH] Offer typo suggestions for 'using'.

That looks much better!

One last note: in UsingValidatorCCC, instead of defining droppedSpecifier
as "Candidate.WillReplaceSpecifier() && LookupName ==
Candidate.getAsString(LangOpts)", it would be faster and safer to define it
as "Candidate.WillReplaceSpecifier() &&
!Candidate.getCorrectionSpecifier()". The former is
checking specifically for changing "a::foo" to "foo" (dropping the
qualifier from the current name), while the latter would also match
changing "a::foo" to "bar" The latter is safer since a completely
unqualified name is invalid for a "using" declaration, and faster since it
doesn't have to build a string representation of the possibly-qualified
name and then do a string comparison, but simply checks that the candidate
has a NestedNameSpecifier* if it is going to replace the current specifier.
And UsingValidation won't need LookupName or LangOpts. :)
