   This file implements the copy propagation pass and provides a
   handful of interfaces for performing const/copy propagation and
   simple expression replacement which keep variable annotations
   up-to-date.

   We require that for any copy operation where the RHS and LHS have
   a non-null memory tag the memory tag be the same.   It is OK
   for one or both of the memory tags to be NULL.

   We also require tracking if a variable is dereferenced in a load or
   store operation.

   We enforce these requirements by having all copy propagation and
   replacements of one SSA_NAME with a different SSA_NAME to use the
   APIs defined in this file.  
   Lattice for copy-propagation.  The lattice is initialized to
   UNDEFINED (value == NULL) for SSA names that can become a copy
   of something or VARYING (value == self) if not (see get_copy_of_val
   and stmt_may_generate_copy).  Other values make the name a COPY
   of that value.

   When visiting a statement or PHI node the lattice value for an
   SSA name can transition from UNDEFINED to COPY to VARYING.

double_int prop_value_d::mask
       Mask that applies to the propagated value during CCP.  For
       X with a CONSTANT lattice value X & ~mask == value & ~mask.
