Description

Describe the solution you'd like

If possible, if an activity's first parameter is self but it's not an instance method, warn when creating the worker. This means the instance wasn't instantiated.

Research direction

Start at worker creation and the activity registration path, focusing on how the activity's first parameter and instance-method status are inspected. Determine how a non-static activity with a first parameter of self can be identified when registered as static. Done means the worker emits a warning for this case without warning for valid registrations, with coverage for the behavior.
