This module implements common-subexpression elimination. This module does not actually remove the duplicate, but only replaces one with a diference to the other. E.g:

  let a = x + y
  let b = x + y

becomes:

  let a = x + y
  let b = a

After which copy propagation in the simplifier will actually remove the definition of b.

Our CSE is still rather stupid. No normalisation is performed, so the expressions x+y and y+x will be considered distinct. Furthermore, no expression with its own binding will be considered equal to any other, since the variable names will be distinct. This affects SOACs in particular.
