This needed a bit more inference / magic than I was hoping for at first,
specifically around constants and adds. Some instructions can now
generate facts on their output registers, even if not stated. This
breaks away from the "breadcrumbs" idea, but seems to be the most
practical solution to a general problem that we have mini-lowering steps
in various places without careful preservation of PCC facts. Two
particular aspects:

  • Constants: amodes on aarch64 can decompose into new
    constant-generation instructions, and we need precise ranges on those
    to properly check them. To avoid making the ISLE rules nightmarish,
    it's best to reuse the existing semantics definitions of the Add* ALU
    insts, and add a few rules for MovK/MovZ/MovN.

  • Adds: similarly, amodes decompose into de-novo add instructions with
    no facts. To handle this, there's now a notion of "propagating" facts
    that cause an instruction with a propagating fact on the input to
    generate a fact on the output.

Together, these heuristics mean that we'll eagerly generate a fact for
mem(mt0, 0, 0) + 8 -> mem(mt0, 8, 8), but we won't, for example,
generate ranges on every single integer operation.

With these changes and a few other misc fixes, this PR can now check a
nontrivial "hello world" Wasm on aarch64 down to the machine-code level:

$ target/release/wasmtime compile -C enable-pcc=y ../wasm-tests/helloworld-rs.wasm
# completes successfully

(This builds on #7280, and I also intend to clean it up a bit, so creating as a draft for now)
