This fixes #2290 by first resolving everything else before we are resolving a feature whose argument types are inferred from actual arguments.
Since type inference can results in some awful circles here, I had to add a check for such circles to avoid type inference in case of such a circle. For now, a circle is just ignored expecting this to occur only in case of recursion. Consequently, only types provided when entering this recursion will be considered for type inference for arguments.
This patch adds a number of tricky type inference tests that model the example from #2290 and indirect recursion.
Also, test scenarios were added where inference is used without any actual calls and the type ends up being
void
, which is wrong. This should be revisited within #2308.I also added code to the parser to add a
SourcePosition
to eachImpl
which helps during debugging.
