/// redundant since A and A2 share the same stack slot and A1 originated from A.

/// Simple assignment instructions are rewritten slightly differently, to take
/// maximal advantage of Variables known to have registers.
///
/// In general, there may be several valid ways to rewrite an instruction: add
/// the new assignment instruction either before or after the original
/// instruction, and rewrite the original instruction with either the old or the
/// new variable mapping.  We try to pick a strategy most likely to avoid
/// potential performance problems.  For example, try to avoid storing to the
/// stack and then immediately reloading from the same location.  One
/// consequence is that code might be generated that loads a register from a
/// stack location, followed almost immediately by another use of the same stack
/// location, despite its value already being available in a register as a
/// result of the first instruction.  However, the performance impact here is
/// likely to be negligible, and a simple availability peephole optimization
/// could clean it up.
///
/// This pass potentially adds a lot of new instructions and variables, and as
/// such there are compile-time performance concerns, particularly with liveness
/// analysis and register allocation.  Note that for liveness analysis, the new
/// variables have single-block liveness, so they don't increase the size of the
/// liveness bit vectors that need to be merged across blocks.  As a result, the
/// performance impact is likely to be linearly related to the number of new
/// instructions, rather than number of new variables times number of blocks
/// which would be the case if they were multi-block variables.
