Add an _embarassingly simple_ implementation of basic block layout. This is

more of a testcase for profiling information than anything that should reasonably
be used, but it's a starting point.  When I have more time I will whip this into
better shape.

+// This file implements a very simple profile guided basic block placement
+// algorithm.  The idea is to put frequently executed blocks together at the
+// start of the function, and hopefully increase the number of fall-through
+// conditional branches.  If there is no profile information for a particular
+// function, this pass basically orders blocks in depth-first order
+//
+// The algorithm implemented here is basically "Algo1" from "Profile Guided Code
+// Positioning" by Pettis and Hansen, except that it uses basic block counts
+// instead of edge counts.  This should be improved in many ways, but is very
+// simple for now.
+//
+// Basically we "place" the entry block, then loop over all successors in a DFO,
+// placing the most frequently executed successor until we run out of blocks.  I
+// told you this was _extremely_ simplistic. :) This is also much slower than it
+// could be.  When it becomes important, this pass will be rewritten to use a
+// better algorithm, and then we can worry about efficiency.
