// This file implements the OrderedBasicBlock class. OrderedBasicBlock
// maintains an interface where clients can query if one instruction comes
// before another in a BasicBlock. Since BasicBlock currently lacks a reliable
// way to query relative position between instructions one can use
// OrderedBasicBlock to do such queries. OrderedBasicBlock is lazily built on a
// source BasicBlock and maintains an internal Instruction -> Position map. A
// OrderedBasicBlock instance should be discarded whenever the source
// BasicBlock changes.
//
// It's currently used by the CaptureTracker in order to find relative
// positions of a pair of instructions inside a BasicBlock.
