* Instead of handling dead functions specially, just nuke them.
* Be more aggressive about cleaning up after constification, in
particular, handle getelementptr instructions and constantexprs.
* Be a little bit more structured about how we process globals.
*** Delete globals that are only stored to, and never read. These are
clearly not useful, so they should go. This implements deadglobal.llx
This last one triggers quite a few times. In particular, 2208 in the
external tests, 1865 of which are in 252.eon. This shrinks eon from
1995094 to 1732341 bytes of bytecode.

simplifications of the resultant program to avoid making later passes
do it all.
This allows us to constify globals that just have the same constant that
they are initialized stored into them.
Suprisingly this comes up ALL of the freaking time, dozens of times in
SPEC, 30 times in vortex alone.
For example, on 256.bzip2, it allows us to constify these two globals:
%smallMode = internal global ubyte 0 ; <ubyte*> [#uses=8]
%verbosity = internal global int 0 ; <int*> [#uses=49]
Which (with later optimizations) results in the bytecode file shrinking
from 82286 to 69686 bytes! Lets hear it for IPO :)
For the record, it's nuking lots of "if (verbosity > 2) { do lots of stuff }"
code.

dangling constant users were removed from a function, causing it to be dead,
we never removed the call graph edge from the external node to the function.
In most cases, this didn't cause a problem (by luck). This should definitely

Now we collect all of the call sites we are interested in inlining, then inline
them. This entirely avoids issues with trying to inline a call site we got by
inlining another call site. This also eliminates iterator invalidation issues.

* Be a lot more accurate about what the effects will be when inlining a call
to a function when an argument is an alloca.
* Dramatically reduce the penalty for inlining a call in a large function.
This heuristic made it almost impossible to inline a function into a large
function, no matter how small the callee is.

This allows pointers to aggregate objects, whose elements are only read, to
be promoted and passed in by element instead of by reference. This can
enable a LOT of subsequent optimizations in the caller function.
It's worth pointing out that this stuff happens a LOT of C++ programs, because
objects in templates are generally passed around by reference. When these
templates are instantiated on small aggregate or scalar types, however, it is
more efficient to pass them in by value than by reference.
This transformation triggers most on C++ codes (e.g. 334 times on eon), but
does happen on C codes as well. For example, on mesa it triggers 72 times,
and on gcc it triggers 35 times. this is amazingly good considering that
we are using 'basicaa' so far.

assume that if they don't intend to write to a global variable, that they
would mark it as constant. However, there are people that don't understand
that the compiler can do nice things for them if they give it the information
it needs.
This pass looks for blatently obvious globals that are only ever read from.
Though it uses a trivially simple "alias analysis" of sorts, it is still able
to do amazing things to important benchmarks. 253.perlbmk, for example,
contains several ***GIANT*** function pointer tables that are not marked
constant and should be. Marking them constant allows the optimizer to turn
a whole bunch of indirect calls into direct calls. Note that only a link-time
optimizer can do this transformation, but perlbmk does have several strings
and other minor globals that can be marked constant by this pass when run
from GCCAS.
176.gcc has a ton of strings and large tables that are marked constant, both
at compile time (38 of them) and at link time (48 more). Other benchmarks
give similar results, though it seems like big ones have disproportionally
more than small ones.
This pass is extremely quick and does good things. I'm going to enable it
in gccas & gccld. Not bad for 50 SLOC.
