/// @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 RHS expression is evaluated in both forms of an
/// initializer.
