Compute jump threading opportunities in a single pass
The current implementation of jump threading walks MIR CFG backwards from each `SwitchInt` terminator. This PR replaces this by a single postorder traversal of MIR. In theory, we could do a full fixpoint dataflow analysis, but this has low returns as we forbid threading through a loop header.
The second commit in this PR modifies the carried state to a lighter data structure. The current implementation uses some kind of `IndexVec<ValueIndex, &[Condition]>`. This is needlessly heavy, as the state rarely ever carries more than a few `Condition`s. The first commit replaces this state with a simpler `&[Condition]`, and puts the corresponding `ValueIndex` inside `Condition`.
The three later commits are perf tweaks.
The sixth commit is the main change. Instead of carrying the goto target inside the condition, we maintain a set of conditions associated with each block, and their consequences in following blocks. Think: if this condition is fulfilled in this block, then that condition is fulfilled in that block. This makes the threading algorithm much easier to implement, without the extra bookkeeping of `ThreadingOpportunity` we had.
Later commits modify that algorithm to shrink the set of duplicated blocks. By propagating fulfilled conditions down the CFG, and trimming costly threads.
The tests in this directory are shared by two different test modes, and can be
run in multiple different ways:
./x.py test coverage-map (compiles to LLVM IR and checks coverage mappings)
./x.py test coverage-run (runs a test binary and checks its coverage report)
./x.py test coverage (runs both coverage-map and coverage-run)
Maintenance note
These tests can be sensitive to small changes in MIR spans or MIR control flow,
especially in HIR-to-MIR lowering or MIR optimizations.
If you haven't touched the coverage code directly, and the tests still pass in
coverage-run mode, then it should usually be OK to just re-bless the mappings
as necessary with ./x.py test coverage-map --bless, without worrying too much
about the exact changes.
