Add new headers files (terminating with `BB`, as `BasicBlockNodeBB.h`),
which will be used as the new header files by the users, and which
contain a declaration of the template instantiation, and a `using`
aliasing the instantiation.
This has been made to comply with the `-Wundefined-func-template` flag,
automatically enabled when using `-Weverything`
`BasicBlockNode` and `RegionCFG` classes are now template classes. This
means that the `BasicBlockNode` class can be used as a generic wrapper
for any type of object in the original graph (it is usually used to wrap
a `llvm::BasicBlock *` for decompilation purposes, but in tests it can
be used to wrap a `DotNode` object) that implementes `GraphTraits`.
Improved the interaction with the `StringRef` name field of
`BasicBlockNode`.
In case of artificial nodes, the name is left empty and created
on-the-fly for serialization purposes.
Add helpers to test if two `RegionCFG` objects can be considered
equivalent.
This will be used in the test environment to check if the comb
transformation is consistent with the expected behavior.
The `BasicBlockNode` does not contain anymore any pointer to the
`llvm::BasicBlock` object that generated the `BasicBlockNode`.
This change is necessary for decoupling completely the `BasicBlockNode`
and `RegionCFG` classes from the LLVM IR, so that we can build up a
`RegionCFG` from any object which implements the `GraphTraits`.
The `RegionCFG` does not contain anymore a map between
`llvm::BasicBlock` and `BasicBlockNode`.
Removed the `Switch` BBNode, which was used to create the intermediates
nodes for making an original `switch` node a nested tree of `if` checks.
Also removed the `IfEqual` AST node, which was used to represent the
intermediate check nodes in the AST, for later reconstructing the
original `Switch` node in the AST, when possible.
Now, during the simplification of short-circuits the so called
`de-optimization` is also applied to the corresponding `RegionCFGTree`.
This allows us to avoid loss of information during the iterative
refinement phase, which basically divides for ever the existencies of
two nodes that have been cloned starting from a single original one.
First concept of short-circuit simplification.
The `isEqual` operator between ASTNodes is very limited (it does only
check if two nodes originate from the same `BasicBlock` in the original
IR.
