leftibot dd9afc832e Address review: use :: instead of . as nested namespace separator
Switch from dotted names (e.g. "constants.si") to C++-style ::
separator (e.g. "constants::si") for nested namespace declarations,
both in the C++ API (register_namespace) and in script (namespace()).

The original implementation used . because namespace members are
accessed via dot notation at runtime (constants.si.mu_B), making the
declaration separator match the access syntax. However, :: is more
consistent with C++ namespace conventions and aligns with ChaiScript's
existing use of :: for method (def Class::method) and attribute
(attr Class::attr) declarations.

Member access in scripts remains dot-based (constants.si.mu_B) since
that is ChaiScript's member access operator.

Requested by @lefticus in PR #675 review.
