I was initially planning to simply create `ElaborateType` with proper `NestedNameSpecifier`, but that's essentially what the code in `QualTypeNames`  does already (it has logic to create both the `NestedNameSpecifier` and `ElaboratedType` out of it), so we should definitely reuse it.


Got it, thanks. If we're moving this into AST, I suspect ASTContext would be a better home for it. That's where the rest of our random type manipulation code lives, anyway. :)
