%% Peep-hole optimizations suitable to perform when most of the
%% optimations passes have been run.
%%
%% (1) In a sequence of tests, we can remove any test instruction
%%     that has been previously seen, because it will certainly
%%     succeed.
%%
%%     For instance, in the following code sequence
%%
%%       is_eq_exact _Fail SomeRegister SomeLiteral
%%       is_ne_exact _Fail SomeOtherRegister SomeOtherLiteral
%%       is_eq_exact _Fail SomeRegister SomeLiteral
%%       is_ne_exact _Fail SomeOtherRegister StillSomeOtherLiteral
%%
%%     the third test is redundant. The code sequence will be produced
%%     by a combination of semicolon and command guards, such as
%%  
%%      InEncoding =:= latin1, OutEncoding =:= unicode; 
%%      InEncoding =:= latin1, OutEncoding =:= utf8 ->
%%
%% (2) A select_val/4 instruction that only verifies that
%%     its argument is either 'true' or 'false' can be
%%     be replaced with an is_boolean/2 instruction. That is:
%%
%%          select_val Reg Fail   [ true Next false Next ]
%%        Next: ...
%%         
%%     can be rewritten to
%%
%%          is_boolean Fail Reg
%%        Next: ...
