/// \file
/// This file provides an implementation of debug counters.  Debug
/// counters are a tool that let you narrow down a miscompilation to a specific
/// thing happening.
///
/// To give a use case: Imagine you have a file, very large, and you
/// are trying to understand the minimal transformation that breaks it. Bugpoint
/// and bisection is often helpful here in narrowing it down to a specific pass,
/// but it's still a very large file, and a very complicated pass to try to
/// debug.  That is where debug counting steps in.  You can instrument the pass
/// with a debug counter before it does a certain thing, and depending on the
/// counts, it will either execute that thing or not.  The debug counter itself
/// consists of a skip and a count.  Skip is the number of times shouldExecute
/// needs to be called before it returns true.  Count is the number of times to
/// return true once Skip is 0.  So a skip=47, count=2 ,would skip the first 47
/// executions by returning false from shouldExecute, then execute twice, and
/// then return false again.
/// Note that a counter set to a negative number will always execute.
/// For a concrete example, during predicateinfo creation, the renaming pass
/// replaces each use with a renamed use.
////
/// If I use DEBUG_COUNTER to create a counter called "predicateinfo", and
/// variable name RenameCounter, and then instrument this renaming with a debug
/// counter, like so:
///
/// if (!DebugCounter::shouldExecute(RenameCounter)
/// <continue or return or whatever not executing looks like>
///
/// Now I can, from the command line, make it rename or not rename certain uses
/// by setting the skip and count.
/// So for example
/// bin/opt -debug-counter=predicateinfo-skip=47,predicateinfo-count=1
/// will skip renaming the first 47 uses, then rename one, then skip the rest.
