Chris Fallin 75ae976adc egraphs: fix accidental remat of call. (#5726)
In the provided test case in #5716, the result of a call was then
added to 0. We have a rewrite rule that sets the remat-bit on any add
of a value and a constant, because these frequently appear (e.g. from
address offset calculations) and this can frequently reduce register
pressure (one long-lived base vs. many long-lived base+offset values).
Separately, we have an algebraic rule that `x+0` rewrites to `x`.

The result of this was that we had an eclass with the remat bit set on
the add, but the add was also union'd into the call. We pick the
latter during extraction, because it's cheaper not to do the add at
all; but we still get the remat bit, and try to remat a call (!),
which blows up later.

This PR fixes the logic to look up the "best value" for a value (i.e.,
whatever extraction determined), and look up the remat bit on *that*
node, not the canonical node.

(Why did the canonical node become the iadd and not the call? Because
the former had a lower value-number, as an accident of IR
construction; we don't impose any requirements on the input CLIF's
value-number ordering, and I don't think this breaks any of the
important acyclic properties, even though there is technically a
dependence from a lower-numbered to a higher-numbered node. In essence
one can think of them as having "virtual numbers" in any true
topologically-sorted order, and the only place the actual integer
indices matter should be in choosing the "canonical ID", which is just
used for dedup'ing, modulo this bug.)

Fixes #5716.

filetests

Filetests is a crate that contains multiple test suites for testing various parts of cranelift. Each folder under cranelift/filetests/filetests is a different test suite that tests different parts.

Adding a runtest

One of the available testsuites is the "runtest" testsuite. Its goal is to compile some piece of clif code, run it and ensure that what comes out is what we expect.

To build a run test you can add the following to a file:

test interpret
test run
target x86_64
target aarch64
target s390x

function %band_f32(f32, f32) -> f32 {
block0(v0: f32, v1: f32):
    v2 = band v0, v1
    return v2
}
; run: %band_f32(0x0.5, 0x1.0) == 0x1.5

Since this is a run test for band we can put it in: runtests/band.clif. Once we have the file in the test suite we can run it by invoking: cargo run -- test filetests/filetests/runtests/band.clif from the cranelift directory.

The first lines tell clif-util what kind of tests we want to run on this file. test interpret invokes the interpreter and checks if the conditions in the ; run comments pass. test run does the same, but compiles the file and runs it as a native binary.
