[modules] Implement recent ES revisions.

- Instantiation errors are no longer recorded. If instantiation fails,
  the module(s) are reset to "uninstantiated". When instantiation is
  re-attempted, the thrown exception will be fresh.
- Instantiation can succeed even where there are modules in the graph
  that previously failed evaluation.
