BytecodeLabels for forward jumps may create a dead basic block if their
corresponding jump was elided (due to it dead code elimination). We can
avoid generating such dead basic blocks by skipping the label bind when
no corresponding jump has been observed. This works because all jumps
except JumpLoop are forward jumps, so we only have to special case one
Bind for loop headers to bind unconditionally.
Since Binds are now conditional on a jump existing, we can no longer rely
on using Bind to get the current offset (e.g. at the beginning of a try
block). Instead, we now expose the current offset in the bytecode array
writer. Conveniently, this means that we can be a bit smarter about basic
blocks around these statements.
As a drive-by, remove the unused Bind(target,label) function.
