Unlike most languages, variable shadowing is not allowed. Declaring a variable with a name
that is already used in a parent scope will cause a compilation error.

import ui
import gg
fn draw(ctx &gg.Context) {
gg := ctx.parent.get_ui().gg
gg.draw_rect(...)
}
```

Now V should be globally available on your system.
