// This is an X-macro header. It does not use `#include` guards, and instead is
// designed to be `#include`ed after the x-macro is defined in order for its
// inclusion to expand to the desired output. Macro definitions are cleaned up
// at the end of this file.
//
// Supported x-macros are:
// - CARBON_SEMANTICS_BUILTIN_KIND_NAME(Name)
//   Used as a fallback if other macros are missing. Used directly by Invalid
//   only, which is defined last.
//   - CARBON_SEMANTICS_BUILTIN_KIND(Name, Label)
//     Defines a non-Invalid builtin type. The label is used for stringifying
//     types.
//
// This tree represents the subset relationship between these macros, where if a
// specific x-macro isn't defined, it'll fall back to the parent macro.
