Previously, code that already knew the desired index was forced to compute a type to pass to get!T or memberName!T, just for get!T or memberName!T to turn that type back into an index. Removing this unnecessary round trip simplifies the code.

Additionally, since memberName is no longer dependent on SumType.Types, it can be moved to module scope, and its instantiations can be shared across different SumType instances.
