While recalculating denotation in NamedType (in NamedType.memberDenot, which itself can be called from NamedType.computeDenot or NamedType.recomputeDenot), it might call NamedType.disambiguate which uses a denotation to decide about the correct overloaded method. Using current denotation here might cause stale symbol errors, so instead we use the lastKnownDenotation, which should be enough for the use case here, as targetName should not change between phases/runs.

Later in the denotation recalculation a similar thing happens with SourceLanguage.apply, where we also now avoid using currentDenotation, as whether the symbol comes from java or Scala 2 should also not change between phases/runs.
