Lifts this sequence of expressions into an expression of a sequence

Transforms a sequence of expression Seq(e1, e2, ...) where ei: Expr[T] to an expression equivalent to '{ Seq($e1, $e2, ...) } typed as an Expr[Seq[T]]

Usage:

'{ List(${Varargs(List(1, 2, 3))}: _*) } // equivalent to '{ List(1, 2, 3) }

Matches a literal sequence of expressions and return a sequence of expressions.

Usage:

inline def sum(args: Int*): Int = ${ sumExpr('args) }
def sumExpr(argsExpr: Expr[Seq[Int]])(using Quotes): Expr[Int] = argsExpr match
  case Varargs(argVarargs) =>
    // argVarargs: Seq[Expr[Int]]
    ...
}
