Feature: Show appropriate error when a contract has several functions with the same name

[Allarious]

Describe the feature

Whenever a contract has several functions with the same name and different signatures, the functions are only accessible if called by their signature. In such cases, when a function is called as a function of the contract object, it throws the error of TypeError: <function name> is not a function. Instead, it could be helpful to show a more appropriate Error message where it points the user towards using the signature.

Hi @Allarious, I think you are talking about an ethers thing, which is not part of Hardhat. That is a known issue (see ethers-io/ethers.js#407, for example), and I think v6 will handle it better. But there isn't much we can do on our side.
