Currently we perform the va transform inside the innermost construct of IRInterpretationState. However, I think it makes more sense to lift this processing one level, so that the argtypes for the constructor that takes ir matches ir.argtypes, while the one for the constructor that takes mi is the full expanded out argtypes. NFC for base, but the ir constructor is used in downstream external absints. However, I think this way around is better for them also, since it's not always clear what format the argtypes they have are in and the va direction is easy and well supported, so it's better to have the option.

This changes the canonical source of truth for va handling from
`Method` to `CodeInfo`. There are multiple goals for this change:

1. This addresses a longstanding complaint about the way that
   CodeInfo-returning generated functions work. Previously, the
   va-ness or not of the returned CodeInfo always had to match that
   of the generator. For Cassette-like transforms that generally have
   one big generator function that is varargs (while then looking up
   lowered code that is not varargs), this could become quite annoying.
   It's possible to workaround, but there is really no good reason to tie
   the two together. As we observed when we implemented OpaqueClosures, the
   vararg-ness of the signature and the `vararg arguments`->`tuple`
   transformation are mostly independent concepts. With this PR, generated
   functions can return CodeInfos with whatever combination of nargs/isva
   is convenient.

2. This change requires clarifying where the va processing boundary is
   in inference. #54076 was already moving in that direction for irinterp,
   and this essentially does much of the same for regular inference. As a
   consequence the constprop cache is now using non-va-cooked signatures,
   which I think is preferable.

3. This further decouples codegen from the presence of a `Method` (which
   is already not assumed, since the code being generated could be a
   toplevel thunk, but some codegen features are only available to things
   that come from Methods). There are a number of upcoming features that
   will require codegen of things that are not quite method specializations
   (See design doc linked in #52797 and things like #50641). This helps
   pave the road for that.

4. I've previously considered expanding the kinds of vararg signatures that
   can be described (see e.g. #53851), which also requires a decoupling of
   the signature and ast notions of vararg. This again lays the groundwork
   for that, although I have no immediate plans to implement this change.

Impact wise, this adds an internal field, which is not too breaking,
but downstream clients vary in how they construct their `CodeInfo`s and
the current way they're doing it will likely be incorrect after this change,
so they will require a small two-line adjustment. We should perhaps consider
pulling out some of the more common patterns into a more stable package, since
interface in most of the last few releases, but that's a separate issue.
