Description[turbofan] Do not use the generic graph algorithm for widening in the typer.
This change uses an explicit queue for type-widening instead of the
generic algorithm. The trouble with the generic algorithm was that it
called the visitor on the same phi many times in a row (and thus caused
unnecessary retyping). I also think that the queue-based fixpoint is
more readable.
The CL cuts running time of the nbody-java benchmark from ~19s to ~15s,
the time spent in the typer goes from 4.5s to 1s. This is still a lot
- the root cause appears to be slow handling of union subtyping
(m*n for unions of sizes m and n). I see a re-typing of a
single phi node taking > 100ms. I will work on a fix with Andreas,
hopefully we can come up with some canonical representation
of unions at least for the common cases (union of Smi constants).
I have also changed the initial typer run to always compute a type, even
if we already had a type for the node. This fixes one assert failure
where context specialization updates a node without updating the type,
which confuses the typer when widening (as some types suddenly narrow).
