This may later be refined to `ALWAYS_TRUE` in a case when call arguments are known to be immutable.
This state corresponds to LLVM's `inaccessiblemem_or_argmemonly` function attribute.
- `noub::Bool`: indicates that the method will not execute any undefined behavior (for any input).
- `noub::UInt8`: indicates that the method will not execute any undefined behavior (for any input).
Note that undefined behavior may technically cause the method to violate any other effect
assertions (such as `:consistent` or `:effect_free`) as well, but we do not model this,
and they assume the absence of undefined behavior.
* `ALWAYS_TRUE`: this method is guaranteed to not execute any undefined behavior.
* `ALWAYS_FALSE`: this method may execute undefined behavior.
* `NOUB_IF_NOINBOUNDS`: this method is guaranteed to not execute any undefined behavior
if the caller does not set nor propagate the `@inbounds` context.
- `nonoverlayed::Bool`: indicates that any methods that may be called within this method
are not defined in an [overlayed method table](@ref OverlayMethodTable).
- `noinbounds::Bool`: If set, indicates that this method does not read the parent's `:inbounds`
state. In particular, it does not have any reached `:boundscheck` exprs, not propagates inbounds
to any children that do.
Note that the representations above are just internal implementation details and thus likely
to change in the future. See [`Base.@assume_effects`](@ref) for more detailed explanation
