TODO:
1. Sinking store only using scalar promotion (IE without moving the RHS):

*q = p;
p = p + 1;
if (something)
  *q = <not p>;
else
  y = *q;


should become
sinktemp = p;
p = p + 1;
if (something)
  *q = <not p>;
else
{
  *q = sinktemp;
  y = *q
}
Store copy propagation will take care of the store elimination above.


2. Sinking using Partial Dead Code Elimination.
