It's used as a superclass for anonymous classes for adapted function
references. Its main feature is that it _doesn't_ inherit from KFunction
(as opposed to FunctionReference), as per the decision to postpone
reflection support for adapted function references in KT-36024.

Otherwise, the generated bytecode is unnecessarily suboptimal in some
(arguably weird) cases.
In the JVM backend, this was an accidental regression in #3260, as I had
not noticed that effectively inline-only functions were handled by a
separate branch in FunctionCodegen. In JVM_IR, I'm pretty sure the
redundant markers have always been there as `isSuspensionPoint` in
ExpressionCodegen never checked for effectively-inline-only-ness.
This fixes the weird cases when a class gets overwritten by an imperfect
copy, reduces the number of classes in the output if an inline function
contains an inline call that causes it to have regenerated anonymous
objects, and makes inlining of same module functions a bit faster in
general. On the other hand, this may increase memory footprint a bit
because classes cannot be flushed to the output jar, as the inliner
would not be able to locate classes for anonymous objects if they have
already been unloaded from memory.
Specifically, this commit improves the stepping behavior of the IR
backend around functions with defaults.
- Improved line numbers in the default handler itself for better
stepping when inlined.
- Improved source information on default arguments
- Improved test coverage of stepping behavior in old and IR backends.
Improves the stepping behaviour around inline methods with default
arguments. In particular, we now accurately step through the
evaluation of default arguments, but do _not_ spuriously show the exit
from the $default handler.
1. If property is absent, or contains empty string or a string consisting only of whitespace characters, Properties.propertyList() should always return empty List<String>.
2. If property starts or ends with whitespace characters, Properties.propertyList() should not include empty-string values for whitespace prefix or suffix.
