Samir Jindel f03ddc496b [vm/ffi] Don't make force-optimized code masquerade as unoptimized code.
Instead, we set a bit on force-optimized code so that deoptimization knows to skip it and exception
handling will execute catch-entry moves.

In addition we don't throw away deoptimization info for these codes, so that exception handling
works.

Dart VM Compilation Pipeline

This folder contains Dart VM compilation pipeline.

Compilation pipeline is mainly responsible for converting AST or Kernel AST into IL flow graphs and then generating native code from IL.

It has the following structure:

Directory What goes there
assembler/ Assemblers and disassemblers
backend/ IL based compilation backend: optimization passes and architecture specific code generation rules
frontend/ Frontends responsible for converting AST into IL
jit/ JIT specific passes and compilation pipeline entry points
aot/ AOT specific passes and compilation pipeline entry points
. Shared code or code without clear designation.

Currently there are no layering restrictions and components from different subfolders can reference each other.
