Rhombus: Which way should we import packages like SXML?

I was trying so

```rhombus

import:
  lib("sxml/sxml.rkt") as sxml

```

and fail, - no such file or directory ' ~/.local/share/racket/8.17/pkgs/sxml/sxml/sxml.rkt'

A single-element Racket module name, such as `sxml`, [implicitly refers to the `main.rkt` library](https://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/require.html#%28form._%28%28lib._racket%2Fprivate%2Fbase..rkt%29._lib%29%29), so `sxml` is really `lib("sxml/main.rkt")`.
