Reaching definitions in (RD_in) is initially empty for all nodes. Gen
and kill sets are computed. AST node numbers are used for nodes to
refer to their definition number.
Also: two small changes to flow graph printing. Children of branch
nodes are visited in right-to-left order when performing depth first
search. Instructions are numbered locally within blocks so as to not
destroy AST node number before printing (it's useful to print the
definition).

This change adds a pass over the AST that computes the
set of assigned variables for locals and parameters for each expression.
The result of this analysis is used to for two purposes:
1. Recognize variables that are trivial subexpressions. A left sub-expression
of a binary operation is trivial if it is a local variable or a parameter
and it is not assigned in the right sub-expression. In the case of a
trivial left sub-expression we evaluate the right first.
Currently only binary operations and compare operations are considered
when finding trivial left sub-expressions.
2. Recogize certain simple for-loops with a constant trip count where the loop
variable is always within smi range. If the loop count variable is not
assigned in the body of the loop (except in the update expression the
for-loop). This allows omitting smi checks on operation using the loop
count variable.

Visitor stack overflow is used to signal an unsupported construct in
the flow graph. Check for it in more places. Make the utility
functions for appending to graphs handle more cases if they can be
handled correctly.
Remove the entry node in favor of a block with a NULL predecessor as
single entry. Represent the empty flow graph as a single empty block.
Add empty blocks lazily where needed to preserve edge-split form.

Before computing reaching definitions, the set of all definitions in a
function must be collected and they must be numbered. Have the flow
graph builder collect definitions for stack-allocated variables into a
list, and implicitly number them with their list index.

The flow graph is built by walking the AST. Edges are labeled with
instructions (AST nodes). Normal nodes have a single predecessor edge and a
single (labeled) successor edge. Branch nodes are explicit, they have a
single predecessor edge and a pair of (unlabeled) successor edges. Merge
nodes are explicit, they have a pair of predecessor edges and a single
(unlabeled) successor edge.
There is a distinguished (normal) entry node and a distinguished (special)
exit node with arbitrarily many predecessor edges and no successor edges.
The graph is intended to support graph-based analysis and transformation.

This change add simple local live variable information to
the fast code generator. It supports only AST nodes that
are accepted by the syntax checker.
Each variable use points to a variable definition structure
which contains the last use of the definition.
To determine whether a variable is live after a certain point
we can check whether its last use occurs later in the evaluation
order defined by the AST labeling number.
The new information is currently only printed out together with
the IR and not yet used for code generation.

This change adds a post-order numbering to AST nodes that
are relevant for the fast code generator. It is only invoked
together with the fast compiler.
Also changed the ast printer to print the numbering for
testing purposes if it is present.
