Better errors when using unknown data-type constructor.

## Before

  ```
    × Checking
    ╰─▶ Unknown variable

            Finite

      ╭─[../stdlib/validators/tmp.ak:10:1]
   10 │   let now = when context.transaction.validity_range.lower_bound.bound_type is {
   11 │     Finite { t } -> t
      ·     ────────────
   12 │     NegativeInfinity -> 0
      ╰────
  ```

  ## After

  ```
    × Type-checking
    ╰─▶ Unknown data-type constructor 'Finite'

      ╭─[../stdlib/validators/tmp.ak:10:1]
   10 │   let now = when context.transaction.validity_range.lower_bound.bound_type is {
   11 │     Finite { t } -> t

    help: Did you forget to import it?

          Data-type constructors are not automatically imported, even if their type is
          imported. So, if a module `aiken/pet` defines the following type:

           ┍━ aiken/pet.ak ━━━━━━━━
           │ pub type Pet {
           │   Cat
           │   Dog
           │ }

          You must import its constructors explicitly to use them, or prefix them
          with the module's name.

           ┍━ foo.ak ━━━━━━━━
           │ use aiken/pet.{Pet, Dog}
           │
           │ fn foo(pet : Pet) {
           │   when pet is {
           │     pet.Cat -> // ...
           │     Dog -> // ...
           │   }
           │ }
  ```
