%% reorder(Instructions0) -> Instructions
%%  Reorder instructions before the beam_block pass, because reordering
%%  will be more cumbersome when the blocks are in place.
%%
%%  Execution of get_tuple_element instructions can be delayed until
%%  they are actually needed. Consider the sequence:
%%
%%      get_tuple_element Tuple Pos Dst
%%      test Test Fail Operands
%%
%%  If Dst is killed at label Fail (and not referenced in Operands),
%%  we can can swap the instructions:
%%
%%      test Test Fail Operands
%%      get_tuple_element Tuple Pos Dst
%%
%%  That can be beneficial in two ways: Firstly, if the branch is taken
%%  we have avoided execution of the get_tuple_element instruction.
%%  Secondly, even if the branch is not taken, subsequent optimization
%%  (opt_blocks/1) may be able to change Dst to the final destination
%%  register and eliminate a 'move' instruction.
