Introduce the mandary beam_a pass that will be run directly after code
generation, and the mandatory beam_z pass that will be run just before
beam_asm. Since these passes surround the optimizations, beam_a can
(for example) do instruction renaming to simplify the optimization
passes and beam_z can undo those renamings.

In order to save space, rewrite suitable calls to erlang:error/{1,2}
to special BEAM instructions.
This code is probably longer than the code taken out of v3_life and
v3_codegen in the previous commit, but it is much easier to
understand and maintain since the BEAM assembler format is better
understood than the v3_life format.

To facilitate debugging of compiler bugs, teach the compiler the
'no_dead' option. Since the beam_dead pass used to do the necessary
splitting of basic blocks to expose all labels, we must move that
splitting into a separate pass that is always run.

OTP-8623 bg/opt-receive
reveive statements that can only read out a newly created reference are now
specially optimized so that it will execute in constant time regardless of
the number of messages in the receive queue for the process. That
optimization will benefit calls to gen_server:call(). (See gen:do_call/4
for an example of a receive statement that will be optimized.)

If a gen_server process has many messages in its message queue and
calls another gen_server process, the selective receive in
gen_server:call() will have to go through the entire message queue.
Have the compiler generate the new mark_recv/1 and mark_recv/1
instructions that can avoid going through the entire message queue.
