363///
364/// A "basic super block" is the longest sequence of blocks that always occur in
365/// the same order. (The concept is akin to “Basic Block" in compiler theory,
366/// but refers to dynamic occurrences rather than CFG nodes)
367///
368/// Procedure to find all basic super blocks:
369//
370/// - For each block, compute the number of distinct predecessor and
371/// successor blocks.
372/// Predecessor - the block that occurs directly before (to the left of)
373/// the current block Successor - the block that occurs directly after
374/// (to the right of) the current block
375/// - A block with more than one distinct successor is always the start of a
376/// super block, the super block will continue until the next block with
377/// more than one distinct predecessor or successor.
378///
379/// The implementation makes use of two terms - 'heads' and 'tails' known as
380/// the 'endpoints' of a basic super block:
381/// A 'head' is defined to be a block in the trace that doesn't have a
382/// unique predecessor
383/// A 'tail' is defined to be a block in the trace that doesn't have a
384/// unique successor
385///
386/// A basic super block is defined to be a sequence of blocks between two
387/// endpoints
388///
389/// A head represents the start of the next group, so the current group
390/// ends at the block preceding the head and the next group begins with
391/// this head block
392///
393/// A tail represents the end of the current group, so the current group
394/// ends with the tail block and the next group begins with the
395/// following block.
