Improve V3MergeCond by reordering statements (#3125)
V3MergeCond merges consecutive conditional `_ = cond ? _ : _` and
`if (cond) ...` statements. This patch adds an analysis and ordering
phase that moves statements with identical conditions closer to each
other, in order to enable more merging opportunities. This in turn
eliminates a lot of repeated conditionals which reduced dynamic branch
count and branch misprediction rate. Observed 6.5% improvement on
multi-threaded large designs, at the cost of less than 2% increase in
Verilation speed.
