This patch improves the Modula-2 compiler’s symbol spell-checking capabilities. It ensures that the base module is considered first during scope checks and allows filtering of symbols to include only variables, types, or constants. This prevents the scope check from incorrectly stopping at module boundaries and provides more accurate suggestions for misspelled identifiers.
