Really dirty mockup, somewhat broken, too. Inspired by this Reddit post.

Of course, there would be a much simpler quite obvious fix of just hardcoding the Self|->SelfTy mapping. I'm trying to avoid that right now because that'd be really unprincipled. Anyways, let's see how my current approach fares or if I'll push myself to fix the overarching letter casing issue once and forall instead.

Fixes #98828.
