I don't think we can use a SoftReference here if we need to achieve constant
folding.
Looking at inline_reference_get0, I think we might introduce another field
property to trust a reference (potentially in an array) if both that reference
and the referent within the reference is non-null. I think that belongs to a
separate RFE. What do you think?
