The new strategy is as follows. First, the `!` type is assigned
in two cases:
- a block with a diverging statement and no tail expression (e.g.,
`{return;}`);
- any expression with the type `!` is considered diverging.
Second, we track when we are in a diverging state, and we permit a value
of any type to be coerced **into** `!` if the expression that produced
it is diverging. This means that `fn foo() -> ! { panic!(); 22 }`
type-checks, even though the block has a type of `usize`.
Finally, coercions **from** the `!` type to any other are always
permitted.
Fixes#39808.
