- No longer check if the statement will return. Instead, we check if
the current basic block is terminated, which is simpler and handles
exception/break/continue better.
- Use invoke statement when unwind is needed.
- Moved codegen for a block of statements into a separate function.
Behavior of parallel and sequential:
Each function call (indirectly, can be inside a sequential block) within a parallel
block will update the end variable to the maximum now_mu in the block.
Each function call directly inside a parallel block will reset the timeline after
execution. A parallel block within a sequential block (or not within any block) will
set the timeline to the max now_mu within the block (and the outer max now_mu will also
be updated).
Implementation: We track the start and end separately.
- If there is a start variable, it indicates that we are directly inside a
parallel block and we have to reset the timeline after every function call.
- If there is a end variable, it indicates that we are (indirectly) inside a
parallel block, and we should update the max end value.
Note: requires testing, it is difficult to inspect the output IR
