/// Analysis providing branch probability information.
///
/// This is a function analysis which provides information on the relative
/// probabilities of each "edge" in the function's CFG where such an edge is
/// defined by a pair (PredBlock and an index in the successors). The
/// probability of an edge from one block is always relative to the
/// probabilities of other edges from the block. The probabilites of all edges
/// from a block sum to exactly one (100%).
/// We use a pair (PredBlock and an index in the successors) to uniquely
/// identify an edge, since we can have multiple edges from Src to Dst.
/// As an example, we can have a switch which jumps to Dst with value 0 and
/// value 10.
///
/// Process of computing branch probabilities can be logically viewed as three
/// step process:
///
///   First, if there is a profile information associated with the branch then
/// it is trivially translated to branch probabilities. There is one exception
/// from this rule though. Probabilities for edges leading to "unreachable"
/// blocks (blocks with the estimated weight not greater than
/// UNREACHABLE_WEIGHT) are evaluated according to static estimation and
/// override profile information. If no branch probabilities were calculated
/// on this step then take the next one.
///
///   Second, estimate absolute execution weights for each block based on
/// statically known information. Roots of such information are "cold",
/// "unreachable", "noreturn" and "unwind" blocks. Those blocks get their
/// weights set to BlockExecWeight::COLD, BlockExecWeight::UNREACHABLE,
/// BlockExecWeight::NORETURN and BlockExecWeight::UNWIND respectively. Then the
/// weights are propagated to the other blocks up the domination line. In
/// addition, if all successors have estimated weights set then maximum of these
/// weights assigned to the block itself (while this is not ideal heuristic in
/// theory it's simple and works reasonably well in most cases) and the process
/// repeats. Once the process of weights propagation converges branch
/// probabilities are set for all such branches that have at least one successor
/// with the weight set. Default execution weight (BlockExecWeight::DEFAULT) is
/// used for any successors which doesn't have its weight set. For loop back
/// branches we use their weights scaled by loop trip count equal to
/// 'LBH_TAKEN_WEIGHT/LBH_NOTTAKEN_WEIGHT'.
///
/// Here is a simple example demonstrating how the described algorithm works.
///
///          BB1
///         /   \
///        v     v
///      BB2     BB3
///     /   \
///    v     v
///  ColdBB  UnreachBB
///
/// Initially, ColdBB is associated with COLD_WEIGHT and UnreachBB with
/// UNREACHABLE_WEIGHT. COLD_WEIGHT is set to BB2 as maximum between its
/// successors. BB1 and BB3 has no explicit estimated weights and assumed to
/// have DEFAULT_WEIGHT. Based on assigned weights branches will have the
/// following probabilities:
/// P(BB1->BB2) = COLD_WEIGHT/(COLD_WEIGHT + DEFAULT_WEIGHT) =
///   0xffff / (0xffff + 0xfffff) = 0.0588(5.9%)
/// P(BB1->BB3) = DEFAULT_WEIGHT_WEIGHT/(COLD_WEIGHT + DEFAULT_WEIGHT) =
///          0xfffff / (0xffff + 0xfffff) = 0.941(94.1%)
/// P(BB2->ColdBB) = COLD_WEIGHT/(COLD_WEIGHT + UNREACHABLE_WEIGHT) = 1(100%)
/// P(BB2->UnreachBB) =
///   UNREACHABLE_WEIGHT/(COLD_WEIGHT+UNREACHABLE_WEIGHT) = 0(0%)
///
/// If no branch probabilities were calculated on this step then take the next
/// one.
///
///   Third, apply different kinds of local heuristics for each individual
/// branch until first match. For example probability of a pointer to be null is
/// estimated as PH_TAKEN_WEIGHT/(PH_TAKEN_WEIGHT + PH_NONTAKEN_WEIGHT). If
/// no local heuristic has been matched then branch is left with no explicit
/// probability set and assumed to have default probability.
