/// Improve scheduling by coalescing branches that depend on the same condition.
/// This pass looks for blocks that are guarded by the same branch condition
/// and attempts to merge the blocks together. Such opportunities arise from
/// the expansion of select statements in the IR.
///
/// This pass does not handle implicit operands on branch statements. In order
/// to run on targets that use implicit operands, changes need to be made in the
/// canCoalesceBranch and canMerge methods.
///
/// Example: the following LLVM IR
///
///     %test = icmp eq i32 %x 0
///     %tmp1 = select i1 %test, double %a, double 2.000000e-03
///     %tmp2 = select i1 %test, double %b, double 5.000000e-03
///
/// expands to the following machine code:
///
/// %bb.0: derived from LLVM BB %entry
///    liveins: %f1 %f3 %x6
///        <SNIP1>
///        %0 = COPY %f1; F8RC:%0
