This adds complexity, just to add some 'intermediate' safety

keep the rules simple and consistent.
To quote my past self:
There used to be different rules for lifetime errors in all of
these:
- explicit `@system` functions
- `@system` by default functions (yes, [they were
special](https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19873))
- inferred functions
- `@safe` functions
- `@trusted` functions
It was really complex and confusing, and I've worked on
simplifying it such that all lifetime errors are safety
violations like any other. The only exception is directly
returning a dangling pointer to a stack variable, which is just
an error even in @system code ([issue
19873](https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19873)). I
don't want to go back to more special cases, especially with
the dip1000 by default transition which is complex enough as is.
