Further refine the abstract interpretation for InferMutationAliasingRanges to account for forward data flow: Alias/Capture a -> b, mutate(a) => mutate(b) ie mutation affects aliases of the place being mutated, not just things that place aliased.
Fixes inference of which context vars of a function mutate, using the precise inference from the Range pass.
Adds MutateFrozen and MutateGlobal effects but they're not fully hooked up yet.
[ghstack-poisoned]
It turns out that InferMutationAliasingRanges does need a fixpoint loop, but the approach is arguably simpler overall and more precise than the previous implementation. Like InferMutationAliasingEffects (which is the new InferReferenceEffects), we build an abstract model of the heap. But here we know what the effects are, so we can do abstract interpretation of the effects. Each abstract value stores a set of values that it has captured (for transitive mutation), while each variable keeps a set of values it may directly mutate (for assign/alias/capturefrom).
This means that at each mutation, we can mark _exactly_ the set of variables/values that are affected by that specific instruction. This means we can correctly infer that `mutate(b)` can't impact `a` here:
```
a = make();
b = make();
mutate(b); // when we interpret the mutation here, a isn't captured yet
b.a = a;
```
We will need to make this a fixpoint, but only if there are backedges in the CFG.
[ghstack-poisoned]
Alias was akward becuase it had a specific data flow / mutability relationship — direct mutations affect both sides - but also populated the output. We need the ability to express the aliasing dataflwo/mutability relationship w/o expressing actual assignment.
An example of this is that for an unknown method call `const z = x.y()`, we want to express the Alias-style mutability relationship btw z and x (Muate(z) => Mutate(x)), but we want to assume that `z !== x`.
This ends up being really clean, the places that should use Assign are very obvious (LoadLocal, StoreLocal) and most places keep using Alias.
[ghstack-poisoned]
This ties all the ideas together, showing the promise of the new inference. When applying effects, when we encounter an Apply effect we now check to see if the function we're calling is a locally defined FunctionExpression. If so, we construct a signature for it on the fly (we already have created the effects in AnalyzeFunctions), substitute in the args to get a set of effects we can apply, and then recursively apply those effects.
This required adding an ability for signatures to declare additional temporary places that they can reference. For example, Array.prototype.map needs a temporary to represent the items it extracts from the receiver array, and another temporary for the result of calling the user-provided function.
This also meant adding a `CreateFunction` effect which a) allows us to preserve the FunctionExpression value in the inference state (the previous Create effect meant we just created a dummy ObjectExpression) and b) allows dynamically constructing the ValueKind of the function based on whether it actually captures any mutable values.
Lots of other little fixes as well, such as changing function related effects (and PropertyLoad) to use Alias instead of Capture so that subsequent mutations of the output count as mutations of the input.
[ghstack-poisoned]
To help bootstrap the new inference model, this PR adds a helper that takes a legacy FunctionSignature and converts into a list of (new) AliasingEffects. This conversion tries to make explicit all the implicit handling of InferReferenceEffects and previous FunctionSignature.
For example, the signature for Array.proto.pop has a calleeEffect of `Store`. Nowhere does it say that the receiver flows into the result! There's an implicit behavior that the receiver flows into the result. The new function makes this explicit by emitting a `Capture receiver -> lvalue` effect.
So far I confirmed that this works for Array.proto.push() if i hard code the inference to ignore new-style aliasing signatures. I'll continue to refine it going forward as I start running the new inference on more fixtures.
[ghstack-poisoned]
Adds an aliasing signature for Array.prototype.push and fixes up the logic for consuming these signatures during effect inference. As the test fixture shows, we correctly model the capturing. Mutable values that are captured into the array count as co-mutated if the array itself is transitively mutated later, while mutable values captured after such transitive mutation are not considered co-mutated.
The implementation is based on the fact that the final `push` call is only locally mutating the array. During the phase that looks at local mutations we are only tracking direct aliases, and the push doesn't directly alias the items to the array, it only captures them.
[ghstack-poisoned]
See comments in code. The idea is that rather than immediately processing function expression effects when declaring the function, we record Capture effects for context variables that may be captured/mutated in the function. Then, transitive mutations of the function value itself will extend the range of these values via the normal captured value comutation inference established earlier in the stack (if capture a -> b, then transitiveMutate(b) => mutate(a)). So capture contextVar -> function and transitiveMutate(function) => mutate(contextVar).
[ghstack-poisoned]
ImmutableCapture allows us to record information flow for escape analysis purposes, without impacting mutable range analysis. All of Alias, Capture, and CreateFrom now downgrade to ImmutableCapture if the `from` value is frozen. Globals and primitives are conceptually copy types and don't record any information flow at all. I guess we could add a `Copy` effect if we wanted but i haven't seen a need for it yet.
Related, previously CreateFrom was always paired with Capture when constructing effects. But I had also coded up the inference to sort of treat them the same. So this diff makes that official, and means CreateFrom is a valid third way to represent data flow and not just creation. When applied, CreateFrom will turn into: ImmutableCapture for frozen values, Capture for mutable values, and disappear for globals/primitives.
A final tweak is to change range inference to ensure that range.start is non-zero if the value is mutated.
[ghstack-poisoned]
Distinguish the various forms of mutation, and do basic replaying of these effects when the function is created (imperfect, temporary).
[ghstack-poisoned]
This PR gets a first fixture working end-to-end with the new mutability and aliasing model. Key changes:
* Add a feature flag to enable the model. When enabled we no longer call InferReferenceEffects or InferMutableRanges, and instead use the new equivalents.
* Adds a pass that infers Place-specific effects based on mutable ranges and instruction effects. This is necessary to satisfy existing code that requires operand effects to be populated.
* Adds a pass that infers the outwardly-visible capturing/aliasing behavior of a function expression. The idea is that this can bubble up and be used in conjunction with the `Apply` effect to get precise inference of things like `array.map(() => { ... })`.

Alternate take at a new mutability and alising model, aiming to replace `InferReferenceEffects` and `InferMutableRanges`. My initial passes at this were more complicated than necessary, and I've iterated to refine and distill this down to the core concepts. There are two effects that track information flow: `capture` and `alias`:
* Given distinct values A and B. After capture A -> B, mutate(B) does *not* modify A. This more precisely captures the semantic of the previous `Store` effect. As an example, `array.push(item)` has the effect `capture item -> array` and `mutate(array)`. The array is modified, not the item.
* Given distinct values A and B. After alias A -> B, mutate(B) *does* modify A. This is because B now refers to the same value as A.
* Given distinct values A and B, after *either* capture A -> B *or* alias A -> B, transitiveMutate(B) counts as a mutation of A. Transitive mutation is the default, and places that previously used `Store` will use non-transitive mutate effects instead.
Conceptually "capture A -> B" means that a reference to A was "captured" (or stored) within A, but there is not a directly aliasing. Whereas "alias A -> B" means literal value aliasing.
The idea is that our previous sequential fixpoint loops in InferMutableRanges can instead work by first looking at transitive mutations, then look at non-transitive mutations. And aliasing groups can be built purely based on the `alias` effect.
Lots more to do here but the structure is coming together.

Syncing this stack internally there is a small percentage of files that lose memoization, generally for callbacks. The repro here tries to get at the core pattern, where a parameter escapes into a mutable return value. This makes the callback appear mutable, and means that calls like array.map aren't able to optimize as well — even if the array itself is transitively immutable.
The challenge is that we can't really distinguish between just capturing and true mutation right now — AnalyzeFunctions kind of has to pick one, and consider both a mutation.

Fix for the issue in the previous PR. Long-term the ideal thing would be to make InferMutableRanges smarter about Store effects, and recognize that they are also transitive mutations of whatever was captured into the object. So in the following:
```
const x = {y: {z: {}}};
x.y.z.key = value;
```
That the `PropertyStore z . 'key' = value` is a transitive mutation of x and all three object expressions (x, x.y, x.y.z).
But for now it's simpler to stick to the original idea of Store only counting if we know that the type is an object.

Adds fixture tests to demonstrate an issue in changing PropertyStore to always have a Store effect on its object operand, regardless of the operand type. The issue is that if we're doing a PropertyStore on a nested value, that has be considered a transitive mutation of the parent object:
```
const x = {y: {z: {}}};
x.y.z.key = 'value'; // this has to be a mutation of `x`

React Compiler's program traversal logic is pretty lengthy and complex
as we've added a lot of features piecemeal. `compileProgram` is 300+
lines long and has confusing control flow (defining helpers inline,
invoking visitors, mutating-asts-while-iterating, mutating global
`ALREADY_COMPILED` state).
- Moved more stuff to `ProgramContext`
- Separated `compileProgram` into a bunch of helpers
Tested by syncing this stack to a Meta codebase and observing no
compilation output changes (D74487851, P1806855669, P1806855379)

We've occassionally added logic that extends mutable ranges into InferReactiveScopeVariables to handle a specific case, but inevitably discover that the logic needs to be part of the InferMutableRanges fixpoint loop. That happened in the past with extending the range of phi operands to account for subsequent mutations, which I moved to InferMutableRanges a while back. But InferReactiveScopeVariables also has logic to group co-mutations in the same scope, which also extends ranges of the co-mutating operands to have the same end point. Recently mofeiz found some cases where this is insufficient, where a closure captures a value that could change via a co-mutation, and where failure to extend the ranges in the fixpoint meant the function expression appeared independently memoizable when it wasn't.
The fix is to make InferMutableRanges update ranges to account for co-mutations. That is relatively straightforward, but not enough! The problem is that the fixpoint loop stopped once the alias sets coalesced, but co-mutations only affect ranges and not aliases. So the other part of the fix is to have the fixpoint condition use a custom canonicalization that describes each identifiers root _and_ the mutable range of that root.

This is a stab at addressing a pattern that mofeiz and I have both stumbled across. Today, FunctionExpression's context list describes values from the outer context that are accessed in the function, and with what effect they were accessed. This allows us to describe the fact that a value from the outer context is known to be mutated inside a function expression, or is known to be captured (aliased) into some other value in the function expression. However, the basic `Effect` kind is insufficient to describe the full semantics. Notably, it doesn't let us describe more complex aliasing relationships.
From an example mofeiz added:
```js
const x = {};
const y = {};
const f = () => {
const a = [y];
const b = x;
// this sets y.x = x
a[0].x = b;
}
f();
mutate(y.x); // which means this mutates x!
```
Here, the Effect on the context operands are `[mutate y, read x]`. The `mutate y` is bc of the array push. But the `read x` is surprising — `x` is captured into `y`, but there is no subsequent mutation of y or x, so we consider this a read. But as the comments indicate, the final line mutates x! We need to reflect the fact that even though x isn't mutated inside the function, it is aliased into y, such that if y is subsequently mutated that this should count as a mutation of x too.
The idea of this PR is to extend the FunctionEffect type with a CaptureEffect variant which lists out the aliasing groups that occur inside the function expression. This allows us to bubble up the results of alias analysis from inside a function. The idea is to:
* Return the alias sets from InferMutableRanges
* Augment them with capturing of the form above, handling cases such as the `a[0].x = b`
* For each alias group, record a CaptureEffect for any group that contains 2+ context operands
* Extend the alias sets in the _outer_ function with the CaptureEffect sets from FunctionExpression/ObjectMethod instructions.
This isn't quite right yet, just sharing early hacking.

New take on #29716
## Summary
Template literals consisting entirely of constant values will be inlined
to a string literal, effectively replacing the backticks with a double
quote.
This is done primarily to make the resulting instruction a string
literal, so it can be processed further in constant propatation. So this
is now correctly simplified to `true`:
```js
`` === "" // now true
`a${1}` === "a1" // now true
```
If a template string literal can only partially be comptime-evaluated,
it is not that useful for dead code elimination or further constant
folding steps and thus, is left as-is in that case. Same is true if the
literal contains an array, object, symbol or function.
## How did you test this change?
See added tests.
(Almost) all pragmas are now one of the following:
- `@...TestOnly`: custom pragma for test fixtures
- `@<configName>` | `@<configName>:true`: enables with either true or a
default enabled value
- `@<configName>:<json value>`

## Summary
`-constant` is represented as a `UnaryExpression` node that is currently
not part of constant folding. If the operand is a constant number, the
node is folded to `constant * -1`. This also coerces `-0` to `0`,
resulting in `0 === -0` being folded to `true`.
## How did you test this change?
See attached tests
Multiple things here:
- Improve the mean calculation for metrics so we don't report 0 when
web-vitals fail to be retrieved
- improve ui chaos monkey to use puppeteer APIs since only those trigger
INP/CLS metrics since we need emulated mouse clicks
- Add logic to navigate to a temp page after render since some
web-vitals metrics are only calculated when the page is backgrounded
- Some readability improvements
Note that bailing out adds false positives for hoisted functions whose
only references are within other functions. For example, this rewrite
would be safe.
```js
// source program
function foo() {
return bar();
}
function bar() {
return 42;
}
// compiler output
let bar;
if (/* deps changed */) {
function foo() {
return bar();
}
bar = function bar() {
return 42;
}
}
```
These false positives are difficult to detect because any maybe-call of
foo before the definition of bar would be invalid.
Instead of bailing out, we should rewrite hoisted function declarations
to the following form.
```js
let bar$0;
if (/* deps changed */) {
// All references within the declaring memo block
// or before the function declaration should use
// the original identifier `bar`
function foo() {
return bar();
}
function bar() {
return 42;
}
bar$0 = bar;
}
// All references after the declaring memo block
// or after the function declaration should use
// the rewritten declaration `bar$0`
```
The issue in the previous PR was due to a ContextMutation function effect having a place that wasn't one of the functions' context variables. What was happening is that the `getContextRefOperand()` helper wasn't following aliases. If an operand had a context type, we recorded the operand as the context place — but instead we should be looking through to the context places of the abstract value.
With this change the fixture now fails for a different reason — we infer this as a mutation of `params` and reject it because `params` is frozen (hook return value). This case is clearly a false positive: the mutation is on the outer, new `nextParams` object and can't possibly mutate `params`. Need to think more about what to do here but this is clearly more precise in terms of which variable we record as the context variable.
