/**
 * @assertion Execution of an initializer of the form this.v = e proceeds as
 * follows:
 * First, the expression e is evaluated to an object o. Then, the instance
 * variable v of the object denoted by this is bound to o, unless v is a final
 * variable that has already been initialized, in which case a runtime error
 * occurs. It is a dynamic type error if o is not null and the interface of the
 * class of o is not a subtype of the actual type of the field v.
 * An initializer of the form v = e is equivalent to an initializer of the form
 * this.v = e.
 * @description Checks that it is a compile error if o is not null and the
 * interface of the class of o is not a subtype of the actual type of the
 * field v.
