/**
 * EXPERIMENTAL
 *
 * The trait that defines flag sets and operations on them.
 *
 * `Flag`s are used to provide modifiers for abstract syntax trees that represent definitions
 * via the `flags` field of [[scala.reflect.api.Trees#Modifiers]]. Trees that accept modifiers are:
 *
 *   - '''[[scala.reflect.api.Trees#ClassDef]]'''. Classes and traits.
 *   - '''[[scala.reflect.api.Trees#ModuleDef]]'''. Objects.
 *   - '''[[scala.reflect.api.Trees#ValDef]]'''. Vals, vars, parameters and self-type annotations.
 *   - '''[[scala.reflect.api.Trees#DefDef]]'''. Methods and constructors.
 *   - '''[[scala.reflect.api.Trees#TypeDef]]'''. Type aliases, abstract type members and type parameters.
 *
 * For example, to create a class named `C` one would write something like:
 * {{{
 *  ClassDef(Modifiers(NoFlags), TypeName("C"), Nil, ...)
 * }}}
 *
 * Here, the flag set is empty.
 *
 * To make `C` private, one would write something like:
 * {{{
 *  ClassDef(Modifiers(PRIVATE), TypeName("C"), Nil, ...)
 * }}}
 *
 * Flags can also be combined with the vertical bar operator (`|`).
 * For example, a private final class is written something like:
 * {{{
 *  ClassDef(Modifiers(PRIVATE | FINAL), TypeName("C"), Nil, ...)
 * }}}
 *
 * The list of all available flags is defined in [[scala.reflect.api.FlagSets#FlagValues]], available via
 * [[scala.reflect.api.FlagSets#Flag]]. (Typically one writes a wildcard import for this, e.g.
 * `import scala.reflect.runtime.universe.Flag._`).
 *
 * Definition trees are compiled down to symbols, so flags on modifiers of these trees are transformed into flags
 * on the resulting symbols. Unlike trees, symbols don't expose flags, but rather provide `isXXX` test methods
 * (e.g. `isFinal` can be used to test finality). These test methods might require an upcast with `asTerm`,
 * `asType` or `asClass` as some flags only make sense for certain kinds of symbols.
 *
 * ''Of Note:'' This part of the Reflection API is being considered as a candidate for redesign. It is
 * quite possible that in future releases of the reflection API, flag sets could be replaced with something else.
 *
 * For more details about `FlagSet`s and other aspects of Scala reflection, see the
 * [[https://docs.scala-lang.org/overviews/reflection/overview.html Reflection Guide]]
