// By far, the most common redundant pair are generated by bounds checking.
// For example for the code:
//
//	a[i] = 4
//	foo(a[i])
//
// The compiler will generate the following code:
//
//	if i >= len(a) {
//	    panic("not in bounds")
//	}
//	a[i] = 4
//	if i >= len(a) {
//	    panic("not in bounds")

// The second comparison i >= len(a) is clearly redundant because if the
// else branch of the first comparison is executed, we already know that i < len(a).
// The code for the second panic can be removed.
//
// prove works by finding contradictions and trimming branches whose
// conditions are unsatisfiable given the branches leading up to them.
// It tracks a "fact table" of branch conditions. For each branching
// block, it asserts the branch conditions that uniquely dominate that
// block, and then separately asserts the block's branch condition and
// its negation. If either leads to a contradiction, it can trim that
