Hm thinking out loud here, what if we set bug_called_must_BUG = 0 inside
of BUG()? Then we'd be guaranteed that BUG() will never infinitely
recurse.
Another benefit is that we can invoke bug() and follow up with BUG() to
unconditionally exit without a bogus warning "had bug() call(s) without
explicit BUG_if_bug()". This pattern could be useful for 6/6 [1], where
we no longer exit after printing the "BUG:" messages.
Just an idea :)
