-reflection-names-neg.scala:5: error: type mismatch;
- found   : String("abc")
- required: reflect.runtime.universe.Name
-Note that implicit conversions are not applicable because they are ambiguous:
- both method stringToTermName in trait Names of type (s: String)reflect.runtime.universe.TermName
- and method stringToTypeName in trait Names of type (s: String)reflect.runtime.universe.TypeName
- are possible conversion functions from String("abc") to reflect.runtime.universe.Name
-  val x2 = ("abc": Name) drop 1         // error
-            ^
-reflection-names-neg.scala:5: error: value drop is not a member of reflect.runtime.universe.Name
-  val x2 = ("abc": Name) drop 1         // error
-                         ^
