The spec for `ceylond` requires that we are able to look up a module source archive from the list of repositories even if we're not compiling any source code, or if we are compiling source code that doesn't depend on that module.

We need an API for requesting the `TypeChecker` to load a module by name/version, even if it isn't loaded yet by the source folder traversal. All the necessary code is in `ModuleValidator`, we just need to glue it.

This can wait for M2.
