Backend abstraction targeting LLVM, Cranelift, or bytecode.

//! Codegen throughput benchmarks.
//!
//! Each benchmark builds an IR function once, then measures only the lowering — the work
//! [`codegen_lang::compile`] does per call — so the numbers track the backend, not the
//! builder. Three shapes cover the cost drivers: a flat run of instructions, a wide fan
//! of two-way branches, and a loop with block-parameter edges.
