/// Type substitution.
///
/// In the present, the Compiler codebase is able to perform type substitution on a limited
/// set of things and panics for unsupported things:
///
/// * Types
///   * Classes and interfaces are not substituted by `TypeSubstitution`, but may be in a future version.
/// * `UnresolvedThingy` is returned as is
/// * Variable slots
/// * Virtual slots
/// * Method slots
/// 
/// In the future, type substitution may expand to other things if necessary.
