rucc-ir 0.7.6

//! What is known about a pointer, which is what discharges a check.
//!
//! Section 6.2.3 of `spec/safe-memory/06-instrumentation.md` calls these facts rather than
//! instructions on purpose. A check is code and costs something; a fact is a thing the optimizer
//! may assume, established in one place and exploited in another, and costs nothing at all. That
//! is the same shape `nsw` has, and it is what makes check elimination a dataflow problem instead
//! of a pass with its own opinions.
//!
//! There are four of them and a value carries any combination, including none, which is what
//! every value in a function compiled without `-fsafety` carries. They live in a side table on
//! [`Func`](crate::Func) rather than in the value itself, so a module with no safety in it is the
//! same module it was before this existed.
