compiler: Introduce exception trampolines
When the compiler is smart enough to figure out that something will always succeed, it will get rid of the failure branch, but the inverse has not been possible because liveness optimization could end up removing the instruction altogether (since it's never used on the failure path), which is not okay when exceptions are in the picture. To prevent exception-generating instructions from being optimized away when their branches are, we introduce a dummy instruction that refers to the result on the failure path, ensuring that it won't be optimized away.
