v3_codegen: Optimize matching of the final size-less binary segment
Consider the following function: f(Bin, Bool) -> case Bin of <<Val:16/binary,_/binary>> when Bool -> Val end. Simplified, the generated code looks like: bs_start_match2 Fail Live Bin => Bin bs_get_integer2 Fail Live Bin size=Sz unit=1 => Val bs_skip_bits2 Fail Bin size=all unit=8 is_eq_exact Fail Bool true The code generator will replace the bs_skip_bits2 instruction with a bs_test_unit instruction if it can be clearly seen that the context register will not be used again. In this case, it is not obvious without looking at the code at the Fail label. However, it turns out that bs_test_unit instruction is always safe beacuse of the way v3_kernel compiles pattern matching. It doesn't matter whether the match context will be used again. If it will be used again, the position in it will *not* be used. Instead, a bs_restore2 instruction will restore one of the saved instructions.
