Agreed that it needs a new name, but I'm having trouble finding one I'm 
satisfied with.  Here's the full description: "the type of the written implicit 
object argument".  I base this phrasing on the class CXXMemberCallExpr's 
terminology.  In `x.f(5)`, `x` is the implicit object argument, whether or not 
it is also implicitly surrounded by a cast.  That is, "implicit" has two 
different meanings in this context.

So, with that, how about `writtenObjectType`? It's close to 
`objectTypeAsWritten` but I'm hoping it makes more clear that the "written" 
part is the object not the type.
