+/**
+ * Optimiser component that removes assignments to variables that are not used
+ * until they go out of scope or are re-assigned. This component
+ * respects the control-flow and takes it into account for removal.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ * {
+ *   let a
+ *   a := 1
+ *   a := 2
+ *   b := 2
+ *   if calldataload(0)
+ *   {
+ *     b := mload(a)
+ *   }
+ *   a := b
+ * }
+ *
+ * In the example, "a := 1" can be removed because the value from this assignment
+ * is not used in any control-flow branch (it is replaced right away).
+ * The assignment "a := 2" is also overwritten by "a := b" at the end,
+ * but there is a control-flow path (through the condition body) which uses
+ * the value from "a := 2" and thus, this assignment cannot be removed.
+ *
+ * Detailed rules:
+ *
+ * The AST is traversed twice: in an information gathering step and in the
+ * actual removal step. During information gathering, we maintain a
+ * mapping from assignment statements to the three states
+ * "unused", "undecided" and "used".
+ * When an assignment is visited, it is added to the mapping in the "undecided" state
+ * (see remark about for loops below) and every other assignment to the same variable
+ * that is still in the "undecided" state is changed to "unused".
+ * When a variable is referenced, the state of any assignment to that variable still
+ * in the "undecided" state is changed to "used".
+ * At points where control flow splits, a copy
+ * of the mapping is handed over to each branch. At points where control flow
+ * joins, the two mappings coming from the two branches are combined in the following way:
+ * Statements that are only in one mapping or have the same state are used unchanged.
+ * Conflicting values are resolved in the following way:
+ * "unused", "undecided" -> "undecided"
+ * "unused", "used" -> "used"
+ * "undecided, "used" -> "used".
+ *
+ * For for-loops, the condition, body and post-part are visited twice, taking
+ * the joining control-flow at the condition into account.
+ * In other words, we create three control flow paths: Zero runs of the loop,
+ * one run and two runs and then combine them at the end.
+ * Running at most twice is enough because there are only three different states.
+ *
+ * For switch statements that have a "default"-case, there is no control-flow
+ * part that skips the switch.
+ *
+ * When a variable goes out of scope, all statements still in the "undecided"
+ * state are changed to "unused", unless the variable is the return
+ * parameter of a function - there, the state changes to "used".
+ *
+ * In the second traversal, all assignments that are in the "unused" state are removed.
+ *
+ *
+ * This step is usually run right after the SSA transform to complete
+ * the generation of the pseudo-SSA.
+ *
+ * Prerequisite: Disambiguator.
