d13e5110081a68cacd856d3a3c7860996d67679d [SanitizerCoverage] Avoid splitting critical edges when destination is a basic block containing unreachable
This patch adds a new option to SplitAllCriticalEdges and uses it to avoid splitting critical edges when the destination basic block ends with unreachable. Otherwise if we split the critical edge, sanitizer coverage will instrument the new block that gets inserted for the split. But since this block itself shouldn't be reachable this is pointless. These basic blocks will stick around and generate assembly, but they don't end in sane control flow and might get placed at the end of the function. This makes it look like one function has code that flows into the next function.
This showed up while compiling the linux kernel with clang. The kernel has a tool called objtool that detected the code that appeared to flow from one function to the next. https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/351#issuecomment-461698884
