// SelectionKind describes the kind of a selector expression x.f
// (excluding qualified identifiers).
//
// If x is a struct or *struct, a selector expression x.f may denote a
// sequence of selection operations x.a.b.c.f. The SelectionKind
// describes the kind of the final (explicit) operation; all the
// previous (implicit) operations are always field selections.
// Each element of Indices specifies an implicit field (a, b, c)
// by its index in the struct type of the field selection operand.
//
// For a FieldVal operation, the final selection refers to the field
// specified by Selection.Obj.
//
// For a MethodVal operation, the final selection refers to a method.
// If the "pointerness" of the method's declared receiver does not
// match that of the effective receiver after implicit field
// selection, then an & or * operation is implicitly applied to the
// receiver variable or value.
// So, x.f denotes (&x.a.b.c).f when f requires a pointer receiver but
// x.a.b.c is a non-pointer variable; and it denotes (*x.a.b.c).f when
// f requires a non-pointer receiver but x.a.b.c is a pointer value.
//
// All pointer indirections, whether due to implicit or explicit field
// selections or * operations inserted for "pointerness", panic if
// applied to a nil pointer, so a method call x.f() may panic even
// before the function call.
//
// By contrast, a MethodExpr operation T.f is essentially equivalent
// to a function literal of the form:
//
// func(x T, args) (results) { return x.f(args) }
//
// Consequently, any implicit field selections and * operations
// inserted for "pointerness" are not evaluated until the function is
// called, so a T.f or (*T).f expression never panics.
