Perhaps it still makes sense to allow free `return` qualifier
with member functions? The invisible `this` parameter is
implicitly `ref`, so that repeating `ref` just for the `return`
qualifier wouldn't be needed.
We might still require the `return` for the invisible `ref this`
to be the last qualifier, so no `ref int opIndex() return const
scope` or anything like that.
