// sparseDefState contains a Go map from ONAMEs (*Node) to sparse definition trees, and
// a search helper for the CFG's dominator tree in which those definitions are embedded.
// Once initialized, given a use of an ONAME within a block, the ssa definition for
// that ONAME can be discovered in time roughly proportional to the log of the number
// of SSA definitions of that ONAME (thus avoiding pathological quadratic behavior for
// very large programs).  The helper contains state (a dominator tree numbering) common
// to all the sparse definition trees, as well as some necessary data obtained from
// the ssa package.
//
// This algorithm has improved asymptotic complexity, but the constant factor is
// rather large and thus it is only preferred for very large inputs containing
// 1000s of blocks and variables.
