Distributed actors

[Obbut]

Since Swift 5.7, Swift provides language-level support for distributed actors. Distributed actors can be defined using the distributed actor keywords. On distributed actors, one can define distributed methods using distributed func. For example:

distributed actor HelloActor {
    init(actorSystem: ActorSystem) {
        self.actorSystem = actorSystem
    }

    distributed func hello() {
        print("Hello!")
    }
}

Sourcery currently does not seem to provide a way to inspect if an actor or method is declared as distributed, for example with an isDistributed property on Actor or Method.

I just realised that it is possible to query this information by getting the modifiers of a type or method. However, I think it would still be nice if there would be a more convenient or obvious way to query this information.

@Obbut want to propose / make a pr with the more useful API? I'd be game to merge something like this
