(** When approximations of specialised arguments indicate that they are
closures or blocks, add more specialised arguments corresponding to
the projections from such blocks (with definitions of such projections
lifted out), such that the original specialised arguments may later be
eliminated.
This in particular enables elimination of closure allocations in
examples such as:
let rec map f = function
| [] -> []
| a::l -> let r = f a in r :: map f l
let g x =
map (fun y -> x + y) [1; 2; 3; 4]
Here, the specialised version of [map] initially has a specialised
argument [f]; and upon inlining there will be a projection of [x] from
the closure of [f]. This pass adds a new specialised argument to carry
that projection, at which point the closure of [f] is redundant.
