## Summary
`ty` does not understand that calls to functions which have been
annotated as having a return type of `Never` / `NoReturn` are terminal.
This PR fixes that, by adding new reachability constraints when call
expressions are seen. If the call expression evaluates to `Never`, the
code following it will be considered to be unreachable. Note that, for
adding these constraints, we only consider call expressions at the
statement level, and that too only inside function scopes. This is
because otherwise, the number of such constraints becomes too high, and
evaluating them later on during type inference results in a major
performance degradation.
Fixes https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/180
## Test Plan
New mdtests.
## Ecosystem changes
This PR removes the following false-positives:
- "Function can implicitly return `None`, which is not assignable to
...".
- "Name `foo` used when possibly not defind" - because the branch in
which it is not defined has a `NoReturn` call, or when `foo` was
imported in a `try`, and the except had a `NoReturn` call.

## Summary
Simplifies literal `True` and `False` conditions to `ALWAYS_TRUE` /
`ALWAYS_FALSE` during semantic index building. This allows us to eagerly
evaluate more constraints, which should help with performance (looks
like there is a tiny 1% improvement in instrumented benchmarks), but
also allows us to eliminate definitely-unreachable branches in
control-flow merging. This can lead to better type inference in some
cases because it allows us to retain narrowing constraints without
solving https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/690 first:
```py
def _(c: int | None):
if c is None:
assert False
reveal_type(c) # int, previously: int | None
```

## Test Plan
* Regression test for https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/713
* Made sure that all ecosystem diffs trace back to removed false
positives
## Summary
Setting `TY_MEMORY_REPORT=full` will generate and print a memory usage
report to the CLI after a `ty check` run:
```

`Expression` metadata=4.45MB fields=5.94MB count=92804

=======SALSA SUMMARY=======
TOTAL MEMORY USAGE: 577.61MB
struct metadata = 29.00MB
struct fields = 35.68MB
memo metadata = 103.87MB
memo fields = 409.06MB
```
Eventually, we should integrate these numbers into CI in some form. The
one limitation currently is that heap allocations in salsa structs (e.g.
interned values) are not tracked, but memoized values should have full
coverage. We may also want a peak memory usage counter (that accounts
for non-salsa memory), but that is relatively simple to profile manually
(e.g. `time -v ty check`) and would require a compile-time option to
avoid runtime overhead.
## Summary
* Completely removes the concept of visibility constraints. Reachability
constraints are now used to model the static visibility of bindings and
declarations. Reachability constraints are *much* easier to reason about
/ work with, since they are applied at the beginning of a branch, and
not applied retroactively. Removing the duplication between visibility
and reachability constraints also leads to major code simplifications
[^1]. For an overview of how the new constraint system works, see the
updated doc comment in `reachability_constraints.rs`.
* Fixes a [control-flow modeling bug
(panic)](https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/365) involving `break`
statements in loops
* Fixes a [bug where](https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/624) where
`elif` branches would have wrong reachability constraints
* Fixes a [bug where](https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/648) code
after infinite loops would not be considered unreachble
* Fixes a panic on the `pywin32` ecosystem project, which we should be
able to move to `good.txt` once this has been merged.
* Removes some false positives in unreachable code because we infer
`Never` more often, due to the fact that reachability constraints now
apply retroactively to *all* active bindings, not just to bindings
inside a branch.
* As one example, this removes the `division-by-zero` diagnostic from
https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/443 because we now infer `Never`
for the divisor.
* Supersedes and includes similar test changes as

## Benchmarks
Benchmarks on black, pandas, and sympy showed that this is neither a
performance improvement, nor a regression.
## Test Plan
Regression tests for:
- [x] https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/365
- [x] https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/624
- [x] https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/642
- [x] https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/648
[^1]: I'm afraid this is something that @carljm advocated for since the
beginning, and I'm not sure anymore why we have never seriously tried
this before. So I suggest we do *not* attempt to do a historical deep
dive to find out exactly why this ever became so complicated, and just
enjoy the fact that we eventually arrived here.

## Summary
This PR partially solves https://github.com/astral-sh/ty/issues/164
(derived from #17643).
Currently, the definitions we manage are limited to those for simple
name (symbol) targets, but we expand this to track definitions for
attribute and subscript targets as well.
This was originally planned as part of the work in #17643, but the
changes are significant, so I made it a separate PR.
After merging this PR, I will reflect this changes in #17643.
There is still some incomplete work remaining, but the basic features
have been implemented, so I am publishing it as a draft PR.
Here is the TODO list (there may be more to come):
* [x] Complete rewrite and refactoring of documentation (removing
`Symbol` and replacing it with `Place`)
* [x] More thorough testing
* [x] Consolidation of duplicated code (maybe we can consolidate the
handling related to name, attribute, and subscript)
This PR replaces the current `Symbol` API with the `Place` API, which is
a concept that includes attributes and subscripts (the term is borrowed
from Rust).
## Test Plan
`mdtest/narrow/assignment.md` is added.
