Yes, the name is pretty confusing. Basically, it is "extra
information" about a type which doesn't factor into the core type
checking code. E.g.,

char arr[4 + 4];

and

char arr2[8];

are the same type (Type) to the compiler, but there is a distinction
that you can recover by looking at the TypeSourceInfo.
