effects: add reflection utility for the new effect analysis

This commit adds new reflection utility named `Base.infer_effects` that
works in the same way as `Base.return_types` but returns inferred effects
instead. It would be helpful to test that certain method call has an
expected effects.

For example, we can now remove `Base.@pure` annotation from the definition of
`BroadcastStyle(a::A, b::B) where {A<:AbstractArrayStyle{M},B<:AbstractArrayStyle{N}} where {M,N}`
and checks it's still eligible for concrete evaluation like this
(see <#44776 (comment)> for the context):
```julia
julia> import Base.Broadcast: AbstractArrayStyle, DefaultArrayStyle, Unknown

julia> function BroadcastStyle(a::A, b::B) where {A<:AbstractArrayStyle{M},B<:AbstractArrayStyle{N}} where {M,N}
           if Base.typename(A) === Base.typename(B)
               return A(Val(max(M, N)))
           end
           return Unknown()
       end
BroadcastStyle (generic function with 1 method)

julia> # test that the above definition is eligible for concrete evaluation
       @test Base.infer_effects(BroadcastStyle, (DefaultArrayStyle{1},DefaultArrayStyle{2},)) |> Core.Compiler.is_total_or_error
Test Passed
```
