Example of assignment to this

Assigning to 'this' is currently not documented anywhere. Still assigning to
this, at least in constructors, works and is used by some code (gtkd, for
example). I think assigning to this should either work in constructors as it
does right now, but it then should be documented, or it should be disallowed.
If it will stay implementation specific, that should still be noted in the
docs.

'this' is allowed
