 The first step is to build a list of candidate receiver types.
-Obtain these by repeatedly [dereferencing][dereference] the receiver expression's type, adding each type encountered to the list, then finally attempting an [unsized coercion] at the end, and adding the result type if that is successful.

 Then, for each candidate `T`, add `&T` and `&mut T` to the list immediately after `T`.
