CL 213703 converted generated rewrite rules for commutative ops
to use loops instead of duplicated code.
However, it loaded args using expressions like
v.Args[i] and v.Args[i^1], which the compiler could
not eliminate bounds for (including with all outstanding
prove CLs).
Also, given a series of separate rewrite rules for the same op,
we generated bounds checks for every rewrite rule, even though
we were repeatedly loading the same set of args.
This change reduces both sets of bounds checks.
Instead of loading v.Args[i] and v.Args[i^1] for commutative loops,
we now preload v.Args[0] and v.Args[1] into local variables,
and then swap them (as needed) in the commutative loop post statement.
And we now load all top level v.Args into local variables
at the beginning of every rewrite rule function.
The second optimization is the more significant,
but the first helps a little, and they play together
nicely from the perspective of generating the code.
This does increase register pressure, but the reduced bounds
checks more than compensate.
Note that the vast majority of rewrite rules evaluated
are not applied, so the prologue is the most important
part of the rewrite rules.
There is one subtle aspect to the new generated code.
Because the top level v.Args are shared across rewrite rules,
and rule evaluation can swap v_0 and v_1, v_0 and v_1
can end up being swapped from one rule to the next.
That is OK, because any time a rule does not get applied,
they will have been swapped exactly twice.
Passes toolstash-check -all.

First, renove unnecessary "// cond:" lines from the generated files.
This shaves off about ~7k lines.
Second, join "if cond { break }" statements via "||", which allows us to
deduplicate a large number of them. This shaves off another ~25k lines.
This change is not for readability or simplicity; but rather, to avoid
unnecessary verbosity that makes the generated files larger. All in all,
git reports that the generated files overall weigh ~200KiB less, or
about 2.7% less.
While at it, add a -trace flag to rulegen.
Updates #33644.

First, add cpu and memory profiling flags, as these are useful to see
where rulegen is spending its time. It now takes many seconds to run on
a recent laptop, so we have to keep an eye on what it's doing.
Second, stop writing '_ = var' lines to keep imports and variables used
at all times. Now that rulegen removes all such unused names, they're
unnecessary.
To perform the removal, lean on go/types to first detect what names are
unused. We can configure it to give us all the type-checking errors in a
file, so we can collect all "declared but not used" errors in a single
pass.
We then use astutil.Apply to remove the relevant nodes based on the line
information from each unused error. This allows us to apply the changes
without having to do extra parser+printer roundtrips to plaintext, which
are far too expensive.
We need to do multiple such passes, as removing an unused variable
declaration might then make another declaration unused. Two passes are
enough to clean every file at the moment, so add a limit of three passes
for now to avoid eating cpu uncontrollably by accident.
The resulting performance of the changes above is a ~30% loss across the
table, since go/types is fairly expensive. The numbers were obtained
with 'benchcmd Rulegen go run *.go', which involves compiling rulegen
itself, but that seems reflective of how the program is used.

We can live with a bit more resource usage, but the time/op getting
close to 10s isn't good. To win that back, introduce concurrency in
main.go. This further increases resource usage a bit, but the real time
on this quad-core laptop is greatly reduced. The final benchstat is as
follows:
name old time/op new time/op delta
Rulegen 5.61s ± 0% 3.97s ± 1% -29.26% (p=0.008 n=5+5)

It might be possible to reduce the cpu or memory usage in the future,
such as configuring go/types to do less work, or taking shortcuts to
avoid having to run it many times. For now, ~2x cpu and ~4x memory usage
seems like a fair trade for a faster and better rulegen.
Finally, we can remove the old code that tried to remove some unused
variables in a hacky and unmaintainable way.

A lot of the naked for loops begin like:
for {
v := b.Control
if v.Op != OpConstBool {
break
}
...
return true
}
Instead, write them out in a more compact and readable way:
for v.Op == OpConstBool {
...
return true
}
This requires the addition of two bytes.Buffer writers, as this helps us
make a decision based on future pieces of generated code. This probably
makes rulegen slightly slower, but that's not noticeable; the code
generation still takes ~3.5s on my laptop, excluding build time.
The "v := b.Control" declaration can be moved to the top of each
function. Even though the rules can modify b.Control when firing, they
also make the function return, so v can't be used again.
While at it, remove three unnecessary lines from the top of each
rewriteBlock func.
In total, this results in ~4k lines removed from the generated code, and
a slight improvement in readability.

Flagalloc has the unenviable task of splitting
flag-generating ops that have been merged with loads
when the flags need to "spilled" (i.e. regenerated).
Since there weren't very many of them, there was a hard-coded list
of ops and bespoke code written to split them.
This change migrates load splitting into rewrite rules,
to make them easier to maintain.
