    cmd/compile: detect OFORUNTIL inductive facts in prove · b812eec9
    Austin Clements authored
    Currently, we compile range loops into for loops with the obvious
    initialization and update of the index variable. In this form, the
    prove pass can see that the body is dominated by an i < len condition,
    and findIndVar can detect that i is an induction variable and that
    0 <= i < len.
    
    GOEXPERIMENT=preemptibleloops compiles range loops to OFORUNTIL and
    we're preparing to unconditionally switch to a variation of this for
     #24543. OFORUNTIL moves the increment and condition *after* the body,
    which makes the bounds on the index variable much less obvious. With
    OFORUNTIL, proving anything about the index variable requires
    understanding the phi that joins the index values at the top of the
    loop body block.
    
    This interferes with both prove's ability to see that i < len (this is
    true on both paths that enter the body, but from two different
    conditional checks) and with findIndVar's ability to detect the
    induction pattern.
    
    Fix this by teaching prove to detect that the index in the pattern
    constructed by OFORUNTIL is an induction variable and add both bounds
    to the facts table. Currently this is done separately from findIndVar
    because it depends on prove's factsTable, while findIndVar runs before
    visiting blocks and building the factsTable.
    
    Without any GOEXPERIMENT, this has no effect on std or cmd. However,
    with GOEXPERIMENT=preemptibleloops, this change becomes necessary to
    prove 90 conditions in std and cmd.
