Description
```
Import {
name: "ORDINAL 0",
dll: "WS2_32.dll",
ordinal: 0,
offset: 62264,
rva: 0,
size: 4
},
```
this ("ORDINAL 0") is ~~basically~~ a stupid hack, but it makes working with Import much nicer. Alternatively, could make an enum, but, i dunno that just annoys me for some reason

Research direction
Start by locating the PE Import definition and its consumers. Compare the proposed Option representation with the enum alternative, including how ordinal-only imports are exposed. Done means the representation is chosen and the "ORDINAL 0" workaround is no longer needed without breaking existing Import users.
