There are a few spots where copy propagate arrays is trying
to go from a Type to an id, but the type is not unique. When generating
code this pass needs specific ids, otherwise we get type mismatches.
However, the ambigous types means we can sometimes get the wrong type
and generate invalid code.
That code has been rewritten to not rely on the type manager, and just
look at the instructions instead.
I have opened https://github.com/KhronosGroup/SPIRV-Tools/issues/1939 to
try to get a way to make this more robust.
This CL moves the files in opt/ to consistenly be under the opt::
namespace. This frees up the ir:: namespace so it can be used to make a
shared ir represenation.
We have already disabled common uniform elimination because it created
sequences of loads an entire uniform object, then we extract just a
single element. This caused problems in some drivers, and is just
generally slow because it loads more memory than needed.
However, there are other way to get into this situation, so I've added
a pass that looks specifically for this pattern and removes it when only
a portion of the load is used.
Fixes#1547.
OpImageTexelPointer acts like a special kind of load. It is not an
array load, but it also cannot be removed the same way a regular
load can. The type of propagation that needs to be done is similar
to what we do for arrays, so I want to merge that code into that
optmization.

When the original code copies an entire array or struct one element at a
time, this turns into a series of OpCompositeInsert instruction followed
by a store of the whole array. We currently miss opportunities in copy
propagate arrays because we do not recognize this as a copy.
This commit adds code to copy propagate arrays to identify this code
pattern.
Also updates the performance passed to run array copy propagation.
The first implementation of MemroyObject, which is used in copy
propagate arrays, forced the access chain to be like the access chains
in OpCompositeExtract. This excluded the possibility of the memory
object from representing an array element that was extracted with a
variable index. Looking at the code, that restriction is not
neccessary. I also see some opportunities for doing this in some real
shaders.

When we change the type of an object that gets stored, we do not want to
change the type of the memory location being stored to. In order to
still be able to do the rewrite, we will decompose and rebuild the
object so it is the type that can be stored.
Fixes#1416.
The sprir-v generated from HLSL code contain many copyies of very large
arrays. Not only are these time consumming, but they also cause
problems for drivers because they require too much space.
To work around this, we will implement an array copy propagation. Note
that we will not implement a complete array data flow analysis in order
to implement this. We will be looking for very simple cases:
1) The source must never be stored to.
2) The target must be stored to exactly once.
3) The store to the target must be a store to the entire array, and be a
copy of the entire source.
4) All loads of the target must be dominated by the store.
The hard part is keeping all of the types correct. We do not want to
have to do too large a search to update everything, which may not be
possible, do we give up if we see any instruction that might be hard to
update.
Also in types.h, the element decorations are not stored in an std::map.
This change was done so the hashing algorithm for a Struct is
consistent. With the std::unordered_map, the traversal order was
non-deterministic leading to the same type getting hashed to different
values. See |Struct::GetExtraHashWords|.
