In order to implement SIMD's all_true (https://github.com/WebAssembly/simd/blob/master/proposals/simd/SIMD.md#all-lanes-true), we must legalize some instruction (I chose `vall_true`) to a comparison against 0 and a similar reduction as vany_true using `PTEST` and `SETNZ`. Since `icmp` only allows integers but `vall_true` could allow more vector types, `raw_bitcast` is used to convert the lane types into integers, e.g. b32x4 to i32x4. To do so without runtime type-checking, the `raw_bitcast` instruction (which emits no instruction) can now bitcast from any vector type to the same type, e.g. i32x4 to i32x4.
This crate contains the core Cranelift code generator. It translates code from an intermediate representation into executable machine code.
