(** Auxiliary helper to expand [Bottom] values.

    During compilation, rustc desaggregates the ADT initializations. The
    consequence is that the following rust code:
    ```
    let x = Cons a b;
    ```

    Looks like this in MIR:
    ```
    (x as Cons).0 = a;
    (x as Cons).1 = b;
    set_discriminant(x, 0); // If `Cons` is the variant of index 0
    ```

    The consequence is that we may sometimes need to write fields to values
    which are currently [Bottom]. When doing this, we first expand the value
    to, say, [Cons Bottom Bottom] (note that field projection contains information
    about which variant we should project to, which is why we *can* set the
    variant index when writing one of its fields).

    - we can't immediately end `mut_borrow l2 ...` because it contains a loan

    it is the case). Note that this value is very likely to contain [Bottom]
