This new query returns only the predicates *directly defined* on an
item (in contrast to the more common `predicates_of`, which returns
the predicates that must be proven to reference an item). These two
sets are almost always identical except for traits, where
`predicates_of` includes an artificial `Self: Trait<...>` predicate
(basically saying that you cannot use a trait item without proving
that the trait is implemented for the type parameters).
This new query is only used in chalk lowering, where this artificial
`Self: Trait` predicate is problematic. We encode it in metadata but
only where needed since it is kind of repetitive with existing
information.

This computes the transitive closure of traits that appear in the
environment and then appends their clauses. It needs some work, but
it's in the right direction.
