The API for pkg/front_end is still in flux so we want to avoid having
any packages depend directly on it (other than analyzer and
back-ends).
This CL re-exports some of the critical pieces of front_end needed by
analyzer clients so that those clients can access them via analyzer,
without having to directly depend on front_end. It also updates
pkg/analyzer_plugin to make use of those re-exports.

These utilities are needed for generating the code that supports
summaries; in order to move summary logic into front_end, we will need
these code generation tools in front_end as well.
Also make a minor change to summary code generation logic so that it
talks to the file system directly rather than depending on analyzer's
file system abstraction.
