However, the `ExcludeOption` compiler directive is only evaluated lazily upon a compilation attempt. Therefore, if a method was not tried to be compiled, yet, `Method::is_not_compilable()` always returns false, regardless of any set compiler directive.

I also cleaned up some wrong use of `CompLevel_any` and `CompLevel_all` as suggested by @veresov: `CompLevel_any` should only be used to query the state as in `is_*()` methods and `CompLevel_all` when changing the state is in `set_*()` methods.

Marked as reviewed by iveresov (Reviewer).

A typo "CompLevl_any" -> "CompLevel_any".
