Aggressive "inline must be followed by an if or a match" error in Scala 2

[sjrd]

Describe the bug

Define a method called inline in Scala 2 code, then call it:

def inline(foo: Int): Int = foo

def bar(x: Int): Int =
  inline(x)

The call to inline is flagged as a compile error with

`inline` must be followed by an `if` or a `match`

even though Scala 2 accepts this code.

This worked before. It was apparently broken by v1.4.2.

Expected behavior

No compile error in the IDE.

Operating system

Windows

Editor/Extension

VS Code

Version of Metals

v1.45.0
