I've been working on the IR JIT recently, getting more method argument
forms working and reducing the manual specialization I do in the
compiler. More code is working because of that, but it increases the
need for us to get to a baseline from which we can start specializing
and improving the IR.

While we are at it, you can also make binding load/store operations
explicit in the IR by running AddLocalVarLoadStoreInstructions pass (this
should be run after LocalOptimizationPass and before
AddCallProtocolInstructions pass). This basically fixes up all local var
read/write operations to read/w
