In order to address https://github.com/dart-lang/language/issues/731
(improved type inference for `fold` etc.) we're going to need to
sometimes defer analysis of invocation arguments that are closures, so
that closure parameters can have their types inferred based on other
parameters. To avoid annoying the user with inconsistent behaviors,
we defer analysis of closures in all circumstances, even if it's not
necessary to do so for type inference purposes.
This has a minor user-visible effect: if an invocation contains some
closures and some non-closures, any demotions that happen due to write
captures in the closures are postponed until the end of the
invocation; this means that the write-captured variables remain
promoted for other invocation arguments, even if those arguments
appear after the closure. This is safe because there is no way for
the closure to be called until after all of the other invocation
arguments are evaluated. See the language tests in this CL for
details.
Note that this change only has an effect when the experimental feature
`inference-update-1` is enabled.
