## More `match` pattern types

## Exhaustiveness checking for methods of enums

                return True
            case Answer.NO:
                return False
```

## Exhaustiveness checking for type variables with bounds or constraints

```toml
[environment]

```

In these examples, no `invalid-return-type` diagnostics are emitted, despite the fact there are no
`else` clauses. Note that these examples deliberately also do *not* have any `assert_never` or
`assert_type` calls, since these call expressions can create their own `IsNonTerminalCall`
predicates in our reachability infrastructure!

```py
