// TODO: Graph based predicate heuristics.
// Walking the instruction list linearly will get many, perhaps most, of
// the cases, but to do a truly thorough job of this, we need a more
// wholistic approach.
//
// This optimization is very similar in spirit to the register allocator's
// spill placement, only here we're determining where to place cross-class
// register copies rather than spills. As such, a similar approach is
// called for.
//
// We want to build up a set of graphs of all instructions which are candidates
// for transformation along with instructions which generate their inputs and
// consume their outputs. For each edge in the graph, we assign a weight
// based on whether there is a copy required there (weight zero if not) and
// the block frequency of the block containing the defining or using
// instruction, whichever is less. Our optimization is then a graph problem
// to minimize the total weight of all the graphs, then transform instructions
// and add or remove copy instructions as called for to implement the
// solution.
