   - Compute `new_bor` from `new_tag` and the type of the reference being created.
   - `reactivate(bor)`.
   - If this is a function argument coming in: `loc.borrows.push(FnBarrier(stack_height))`.
-  - `initiate(new_bor)`. Note that this is a NOP if `new_bor` is already active -- in particular, if the location is frozen and this is a shared reference with interior mutability, we do *not* push anything on top of the barrier. This is important, because we do not want to push that might unfreeze the location when being reactivated.

This is important, because any reactivation that unfreezes this location must lead to UB while the barrier is still present.

 * Any time a raw pointer is created from a reference, we might have to do a raw reborrow.
