- some other inlinings within persistence.py

:class:`.SynonymProperty` and :class:`.ComparableProperty`.

:class:`.Index`, :class:`.ForeignKey`, :class:`.ForeignKeyConstraint`,
:class:`.UniqueConstraint`, :class:`.PrimaryKeyConstraint`,
:class:`.CheckConstraint`.

fixes #2963

:class:`.InspectionAttr`, where in addition to being available
