Rename "modules" to "namespaces"

[sebastian-lenz]

Starting with TypeScript 1.5 we have namespaces that will/should replace modules, see here. I would like to rename the documentation output accordingly as I always struggled with the distinction between "modules" and "external modules".

Old name	New name
Module	Namespace
External module	Module

This would break existing urls and might interfere with other things but I think it's worth the trouble. Any opinions on this?

I'd like this, but we don't have many links to our docs to break.

Please rename it.
"External Module" is very confusing.

This seems like low hanging fruit. The solution should have a way for projects to avoid breaking existing links. Text and URL changes could be completed as separate PRs
