The problem here was that in the base case, there was no relationship between
`left_parent` and `right_parent`. These could be any two tuples or lists, even
if they were not part of an assignment statement.
To fix this, we add a bit of manual "magic", requiring that both of these
arguments must belong to the left and right-hand sides of the same assignment
statement.
(Note that this is in principle _still_ a gross overapproximation, but since
assignment statements are usually quite restricted in size, I don't expect this
to be a major problem.)
Having that module in `Instruction.qll` slowed down the parsing of that
file both humans and the compiler.
This commit moves the `InstructionSanity` module to `IRSanity.qll`
without making any changes to its contents apart from adding some
imports.
On Wireshark with 6GB RAM, I've observed `definitionReachesRank` to be
the slowest predicate in the IR. It seems that the implementation was
slow because the optimizer failed to eliminate the common
`reachesRank - 1` subexpression. This led to context being pushed into
the `not`, which got implemented as `MATERIALIZE`. That wouldn't
normally be a disaster, but this is one of the largest predicates in the
IR SSA construction, and iteration 2 was very slow.
