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.
The current method of removing an instruction is to call ToNop. The
problem with this is that it leaves around an instruction that later
passes will look at. We should just delete the instruction.
In MemPass there is a utility routine called DCEInst. It can delete
essentially any instruction, which can invalidate pointers now that they
are actually deleted. The interface was changed to add a call back that
can be used to update any local data structures that contain
ir::Intruction*.
This change will replace a number of the
std::vector<std::unique_ptr<Instruction>> member of the module to
InstructionList. This is for consistency and to make it easier to
delete instructions that are no longer needed.
This is the first step in replacing the std::vector of Instruction
pointers to using and intrusive linked list.
To this end, we created the InstructionList class. It inherites from
the IntrusiveList class, but add the extra concept of ownership. An
InstructionList owns the instruction that are in it. This is to be
consistent with the current ownership rules where the vector owns the
instruction that are in it.
The other larger change is that the inst_ member of the BasicBlock class
was changed to using the InstructionList class.
Added test for the InsertBefore functions, and making sure that the
InstructionList destructor will delete the elements that it contains.
I've also add extra comments to explain ownership a little better.
