Chapter 6 (#38)

* #37 Create chapter 6 skeleton

* #37 Revise type system - TOP, BOTTOM, CONTROL are now directly implemented in Type, XCONTROL is a new type and that's implemented directly too.
We have a _type field that is like an enum.

* #37 Revise Type.meet() - this is now final.
Subclasses can override xmeet() which is protected but
now handles simple types in Type itself.

* #37 Basic test for peephole of CFG

* #37 Revise compute of if

* #37 Revise compute of if

* #37 WIP peephole of If

* #37 WIP peephole of If

* #37 WIP peephole of If

* #37 WIP peephole of If

* #37 WIP peephole of If

* #37 WIP fix the chars inserted by IntelliJ

* #37 WIP Fix compute type in IfNode

* #37 WIP Null check region inputs

* #37 WIP Fix where we choose great grand parent instead of grand parent
Add new test

* #37 WIP More fixes and tests

* #37 WIP Some minor adjustments

* Cleanup folding dead IF tests

Remove isDeadCtrl & just test for the constant.
Remove DEAD_CTRL, doesn't properly reset between tests.
Move keep/unkeep to Node.
PhiNode has a proper compute() call.
ProjNode ideal is a lot simpler.
Region doesn't ever get a null.
Move the mergeScopes Region peep till after all Phis are added.
Type TOP and XCONTROL count as constants.
TypeTuple gets a toString

* #37 WIP Upate README

* #37 WIP Region node should check if one of its inputs is a region that needs to be peepholed

* #37 WIP If node should check if its ctrl input is a Region that has only 1 live input so can be peepholed

* #37 WIP Further update to README to make the peephole logic clearer. Also discuss the relationship between Region and Phi nodes

* Region removes dead input paths

Remove region-folding in Return, If.
Add a Makefile.
Reformat triple-quote lines to be emacs-friendly.

* StopNode idealize

Return type sharpens to include control input.

* Remove !=, >=, >; use Not and <, <=, ==

Fix bug mixing rotating different ops.
Generalize Add fold constants; apply to Mul, EQ.
Fix Div.copy

* Fix bug rotating e.g. < or <=

Peep is only valid for associative ops

* #37 WIP Doc updates

* Work over the Ch6 Readme

Major issue: Region inputs align 1-to-1 with Phi inputs, but a Region can have zero to many Phis.  When we lose a Region input (dead path), we need to lose the same inputs to each Phi - but we don't lose the Phis themselves, unless we're folding away down to the last live input.

* Update chapter06/README.md
