Should we use a different word to declare such protocols?
syntax IntegerLiteral { // where “syntax” is just the lowercase spelling of
whatever we end up calling the namespace
// everything from `IntegerLiteralConvertible` goes here
}
It would certainly help create the mental distinction between these “syntactic”
protocols and "normal” protocols.
