Was going through an example to generate an IR class . What does the createImplicitParameterDeclarationWithWrappedDescriptor method do?

To put simply, it creates the value this. Reference to this value is used everywhere later where this (either explicit or implicit) is used in the program. I’m pretty sure that if you don’t call this method, backend will throw an exception on an attempt to reference this or call any method in the class.
