// 1. "call" mode: when Method is nil (!IsInvoke), a CallCommon

// which may be a *Builtin, a *Function or any other value of kind
// 'func'.
//
// Value may be one of:
//
// (a) a *Function, indicating a statically dispatched call
// to a package-level function, an anonymous function, or
// a method of a named type.
// (b) a *MakeClosure, indicating an immediately applied
// function literal with free variables.
// (c) a *Builtin, indicating a statically dispatched call
// to a built-in function.
// (d) any other value, indicating a dynamically dispatched
// function call.
//
// StaticCallee returns the identity of the callee in cases
// (a) and (b), nil otherwise.

// Args contains the arguments to the call. If Value is a method,
// Args[0] contains the receiver parameter.
//
// Example printed form:
//
// t2 = println(t0, t1)
// go t3()
// defer t5(...t6)
//
// 2. "invoke" mode: when Method is non-nil (IsInvoke), a CallCommon
// represents a dynamically dispatched call to an interface method.
// In this mode, Value is the interface value and Method is the
// interface's abstract method. The interface value may be a type
// parameter. Note: an interface method may be shared by multiple
// interfaces due to embedding; Value.Type() provides the specific
// interface used for this call.
//
// Value is implicitly supplied to the concrete method implementation
// as the receiver parameter; in other words, Args[0] holds not the
// receiver but the first true argument.
//
// Example printed form:
