// OpVarDef is an annotation for the liveness analysis, marking a place
// where a complete initialization (definition) of a variable begins.
// Since the liveness analysis can see initialization of single-word
// variables quite easy, OpVarDef is only needed for multi-word
// variables satisfying isfat(n.Type). For simplicity though, buildssa
// emits OpVarDef regardless of variable width.
//
// An 'OpVarDef x' annotation in the instruction stream tells the liveness
// analysis to behave as though the variable x is being initialized at that
// point in the instruction stream. The OpVarDef must appear before the
// actual (multi-instruction) initialization, and it must also appear after
// any uses of the previous value, if any. For example, if compiling:
//
//	x = x[1:]
//
// it is important to generate code like:
//
//	base, len, cap = pieces of x[1:]
//	OpVarDef x
//	x = {base, len, cap}
//
// If instead the generated code looked like:
//
//	OpVarDef x
//	base, len, cap = pieces of x[1:]
//	x = {base, len, cap}
//
// then the liveness analysis would decide the previous value of x was
// unnecessary even though it is about to be used by the x[1:] computation.
// Similarly, if the generated code looked like:
//
//	base, len, cap = pieces of x[1:]
//	x = {base, len, cap}
//	OpVarDef x
//
// then the liveness analysis will not preserve the new value of x, because
// the OpVarDef appears to have "overwritten" it.
//
// OpVarDef is a bit of a kludge to work around the fact that the instruction
// stream is working on single-word values but the liveness analysis
// wants to work on individual variables, which might be multi-word
// aggregates. It might make sense at some point to look into letting
// the liveness analysis work on single-word values as well, although
// there are complications around interface values, slices, and strings,
// all of which cannot be treated as individual words.
//
// OpVarKill is the opposite of OpVarDef: it marks a value as no longer needed,
// even if its address has been taken. That is, an OpVarKill annotation asserts
// that its argument is certainly dead, for use when the liveness analysis
// would not otherwise be able to deduce that fact.

// TODO: get rid of OpVarKill here. It's useful for stack frame allocation
// so the compiler can allocate two temps to the same location. Here it's now
// useless, since the implementation of stack objects.
