Don't build a stacktrace if it's only passed to erlang:raise/3
Consider the following function: function({function,Name,Arity,CLabel,Is0}, Lc0) -> try %% Optimize the code for the function. catch Class:Error:Stack -> io:format("Function: ~w/~w\n", [Name,Arity]), erlang:raise(Class, Error, Stack) end. The stacktrace is retrieved, but it is only used in the call to erlang:raise/3. There is no need to build a stacktrace in this function. We can avoid the building if we introduce an instruction called raw_raise/3 that works exactly like the erlang:raise/3 BIF except that its third argument must be a raw stacktrace.
