+/// Temporary RValue Optimization
+///
+/// Peephole optimization to eliminate short-lived immutable temporary copies.
+/// This handles a common pattern generated by SILGen where temporary RValues
+/// are emitted as copies...
+///
+///   %temp = alloc_stack $T
+///   copy_addr %src to [initialization] %temp : $*T
+///   // no writes to %src and %temp
+///   destroy_addr %temp : $*T
+///   dealloc_stack %temp : $*T
+///
+/// This differs from the copy forwarding algorithm because it handles
+/// copy source and dest lifetimes that are unavoidably overlappying. Instead,
+/// it finds cases in which it is easy to determine that the source is
+/// unmodified during the copy destination's lifetime. Thus, the destination can
+/// be viewed as a short-lived "rvalue".
