// This file defines synthesis of Functions that delegate to declared
// methods; they come in three kinds:
//
// (1) wrappers: methods that wrap declared methods, performing
//     implicit pointer indirections and embedded field selections.
//
// (2) thunks: funcs that wrap declared methods.  Like wrappers,
//     thunks perform indirections and field selections. The thunk's
//     first parameter is used as the receiver for the method call.
//
// (3) bounds: funcs that wrap declared methods.  The bound's sole
//     free variable, supplied by a closure, is used as the receiver
//     for the method call.  No indirections or field selections are
//     performed since they can be done before the call.

// -- wrappers -----------------------------------------------------------

// makeWrapper returns a synthetic method that delegates to the
// declared method denoted by meth.Obj(), first performing any
// necessary pointer indirections or field selections implied by meth.
//
// The resulting method's receiver type is meth.Recv().
//
// This function is versatile but quite subtle!  Consider the
// following axes of variation when making changes:
//   - optional receiver indirection
//   - optional implicit field selections
//   - meth.Obj() may denote a concrete or an interface method
//   - the result may be a thunk or a wrapper.

// selections because that can be done before the closure is
