This PR is the central part of the first point proposed in #11532.
It adds the mechanisms to shift from resolving fixtures strictly by name to building a proper fixture dependency graph.
All new objects and methods keep the interface of the objects/methods they are intended to eventually replace for now.

As mentioned in the discusion thread I wish to get some feedback if this is a direction worth pursuing further and if it is how to implement proper error reporting during collection for cyclic dependencies errors and mis-scoped dependencies errors

NOTE: The new mechanism are not used yet. Replacing FuncFixtureInfo and FixtureManager.getfixtureinfo by FuncFictureInfo2 and FixtureManager.gefixtureinfo2 should mostly work but I have not tested it yet.
