x = foo # error: [unresolved-reference] "Name `foo` used when not defined"
foo = 1

Note: in this particular example, one could argue that the most likely error would be a wrong order
of the x/foo definitions, and so it could be desirable to infer Literal[1] for the type of
x. On the other hand, there might be a variable fob a little higher up in this file, and the
actual error might have been just a typo. Inferring Unknown thus seems like the safest option.
