Recognize "decoder" case statements (where every case item only assigns
constants to a fixed set of left-hand sides) and replace them with a
single packed constant lookup table indexed by the case expression.
Small tables are materialized inline in the generated code, and are
always optimized. Larger ones are placed in the constant pool and only
optimized if deemed beneficial over branches.
While this slightly conflicts with V3Table, and is not worth that much
on it's own, there will be a follow up patch that converts more cases of
this form which will be much more valuable. This patch does the
necessary analysis and the simple table conversion when possible.
Split -fcase into -fcase-table (this new conversion) and -fcase-tree (the
existing bitwise branch-tree conversion); -fno-case is now an alias for
both.
Default branches, assignments preceding the case (used as default values),
casez wildcards, multiple and partial left-hand sides, and both blocking and
non-blocking assignments are handled. Cases that cannot be safely tabled (e.g.
non-exhaustive with no default, overlapping writes to one variable, or mixed
blocking/non-blocking assignments) fall back to the existing if/else lowering.
Consequently disabled re-inlining of constant pool variables in V3Const,
and rebuild the constant pool hash in V3Dead (previously we didn't
create constant pool entries early enough for this to matter)
