/// \file
/// This file provides an implementation of debug counters.  Debug
/// counters are a tool that let you narrow down a miscompilation to a specific
/// thing happening.
///
/// To give a use case: Imagine you have a file, very large, and you
/// are trying to understand the minimal transformation that breaks it. Bugpoint
/// and bisection is often helpful here in narrowing it down to a specific pass,
/// but it's still a very large file, and a very complicated pass to try to
/// debug.  That is where debug counting steps in.  You can instrument the pass
/// with a debug counter before it does a certain thing, and depending on the
/// counts, it will either execute that thing or not.  The debug counter itself
/// consists of a list of chunks (inclusive numeric intervals). `shouldExecute`
/// returns true iff the list is empty or the current count is in one of the
/// chunks.
///
/// Note that a counter set to a negative number will always execute. For a
/// concrete example, during predicateinfo creation, the renaming pass replaces
/// each use with a renamed use.
////
/// If I use DEBUG_COUNTER to create a counter called "predicateinfo", and
/// variable name RenameCounter, and then instrument this renaming with a debug
/// counter, like so:
///
/// if (!DebugCounter::shouldExecute(RenameCounter)
/// <continue or return or whatever not executing looks like>
///
/// Now I can, from the command line, make it rename or not rename certain uses
/// by setting the chunk list.
/// So for example
/// bin/opt -debug-counter=predicateinfo=47
/// will skip renaming the first 47 uses, then rename one, then skip the rest.
