Description

It is a platform/vendor dependent concept. The current definition focuses on MSVC implementation; the specification should abstract over that and provides the MSVC definition in a vendor-specific trait.

Research direction

Start by locating the current CallingConvention definition in the specification sources. Review how its MSVC-focused details are represented, then separate the platform-independent concept from the MSVC vendor-specific trait; done means the specification defines the abstract concept and preserves the MSVC definition in that trait.
