I don't think we have to add too many assertions. As best I can tell, we'll 
need one in each of the `PseudoObjectExpr` constructors and one in 
`ASTStmtReader::VisitPseudoObjectExpr()`, but those are the only places we 
assign a value into the bit-field. Three assertions isn't a lot, but if we're 
worried, we could add a setter method that does the assertion and use the 
setter in all three places.
