Main method applicability routine. Given a list of actual types A,
a list of formal types F, determines whether the types in A are
compatible (by method invocation conversion) with the types in F.
Since this routine is shared between overload resolution and method
type-inference, a (possibly empty) inference context is used to convert
formal types to the corresponding 'undet' form ahead of a compatibility
check so that constraints can be propagated and collected.
Moreover, if one or more types in A is a deferred type, this routine uses
DeferredAttr in order to perform deferred attribution. If one or more actual
deferred types are stuck, they are placed in a queue and revisited later
after the remainder of the arguments have been seen. If this is not sufficient
to 'unstuck' the argument, a cyclic inference error is called out.
A method check handler (see above) is used in order to report errors.

Resolution of member references is typically done as a single overload resolution step, where the argument types A are inferred from the target functional descriptor. If the member reference is a method reference with a type qualifier, a two-step lookup process is performed. The first step uses the expected argument list A, while the second step discards the first type from A (which is treated as a receiver type). There are two cases in which inference is performed: (i) if the member reference is a constructor reference and the qualifier type is raw - in which case diamond inference is used to infer a parameterization for the type qualifier; (ii) if the member reference is an unbound reference where the type qualifier is raw - in that case, during the unbound lookup the receiver argument type is used to infer an instantiation for the raw qualifier type. When a multi-step resolution process is exploited, the process of picking the resulting symbol is delegated to an helper class ReferenceChooser. This routine returns a pair (T,S), where S is the member reference symbol, and T is the type of the class in which S is defined. This is necessary as the type T might be dynamically inferred (i.e. if constructor reference has a raw qualifier). /**

Helper class for method resolution diagnostic simplification.
Certain resolution diagnostic are rewritten as simpler diagnostic
where the enclosing resolution diagnostic (i.e. 'inapplicable method')
is stripped away, as it doesn't carry additional info. The logic
for matching a given diagnostic is given in terms of a template
hierarchy: a diagnostic template can be specified programmatically,
so that only certain diagnostics are matched. Each templete is then
associated with a rewriter object that carries out the task of rewtiting
the diagnostic to a simpler one.
