4/// Demote fragment shader invocation to a helper invocation. Equivalvent to
5/// `discard()` in HLSL. Any stores to memory after this instruction are
6/// suppressed and the fragment does not write outputs to the framebuffer.
7///
8/// Unlike [super::kill], this does not necessarily terminate the invocation. It
9/// is not considered a flow control instruction (flow control does not become
10/// non-uniform) and does not terminate the block.

16/// After this instruction executes, the value of a `helper_invocation` builtin
17/// variable is undefined. Use `is_helper_invocation` to determine whether
18/// invocations are helper invocations in the presence
19/// of [demote_to_helper_invocation].
