// In the future we might want to allow this to permit code like this:
// (this is a Rust/MIR pseudocode mix)
// ```
// enum Option2 {
// Some(i32, !),
// None,
// }
//
// fn panic() -> ! { panic!() }
//
// let x: Option2;
// x.Some.0 = 42;
// x.Some.1 = panic();
// SetDiscriminant(x, Some);

// However, for now we don't generate such MIR, and this check here *has* found real
// bugs (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/115145), so we will keep rejecting
// it.
