Fixes #23277
First, loosen the test for whether to warn for
module.recur()
. Thethis
assignment has a RHS that is not pure (because of module init) butisStable
(and not significant with respect to the warning).Second, avoid emitting such a
this
assignment if the prefix is the enclosing module. The existing code checks for a prefix that isEnclosing.this
.Other "aliasing" prefixes are not considered, such as a method with result
this.type
, since they could execute arbitrary intended effects.
