nested namespaces

-----------------------------+--------------------
`ResolverMatch.app_name` only contains the outer-most application
namespace in the case of nested namespaces. It should contain the full
namespace path, separated by `:`, just like `ResolverMatch.namespace`.
The documentation[1] is a bit ambiguous in this regard, but I was very
much surprised when I found out this behaviour, and in my opinion it's a
very obvious bug. The only internal use[2 and 3] would currently be
incorrect in the case of nested namespaces. If it should instead follow
the backwards compatibility guidelines because of the ambiguity in the
docs, please mark it as such.
