Field named `StringContext` followed by `s""` does not compile

[izzyreal]

Reproduction steps

Scala version: 2.13.10

scala> class Foo { val StringContext = 42; s"" }

Problem

The above code does not compile in 2.13.10 (though it compiles in 3.2.2). If you change the name of the field it compiles in 2.13.10.

It was intentional in Scala 2 that interpolation used a locally scoped identifier StringContext, but that behavior was changed, intentionally, in Scala 3.

The above code does not compile in 2.13.10

For the record, the error is "error: Int does not take parameters; signature for interpolation must be StringContext.apply(String*)"

Thanks for the amendment @SethTisue 👍

What a nice error message from the beginning of the pandemic.
