and may be invoked using the [method call operator], for example, `x.foo()`, as
well as the usual function call notation.

If the type of the `self` parameter is specified, it is limited to types resolving
to one generated by the following grammar (where `'lt` denotes some arbitrary
lifetime):

```text
P = &'lt S | &'lt mut S | Box<S> | Rc<S> | Arc<S> | Pin<P>
S = Self | P
```

The `Self` terminal in this grammar is the semantic `Self` type and can be
replaced with the type being implemented, including type aliases or associated
type projections for the type.
The `Self` terminal in this grammar denotes a type resolving to the implementing type.
This can also include the contextual type alias `Self`, other type aliases,
or associated type projections resolving to the implementing type.
