> This change eliminates dead multi-nodes created by call-catch cleanup after GCM. Eliminating all dead code created by call-catch cleanup avoids potential issues when splitting the live range of call result values, see the analysis in the [bug report](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8263227) for details. This solution is the least invasive of the three alternatives proposed in the bug report (the other two are constraining global code motion and extending live-range splitting).
> 
> The change also extends the control-flow graph verification pass to catch similar live-range splitting issues earlier (with `+VerifyRegisterAllocator`).
> 
> Tested on:
> - original bug reproducer
> - hs-tier1-5 (windows-x64, linux-x64, linux-aarch64, and macosx-x64) with `+VerifyRegisterAllocator`
> - hs-tier1-3 (windows-x64, linux-x64, linux-aarch64, and macosx-x64) with `+VerifyRegisterAllocator` and `+StressGCM` (5 repetitions)

Roberto Castañeda Lozano has updated the pull request incrementally with four additional commits since the last revision:

 - Complete projection assertions with basic checks
 - Enforce code style in surrounding 'for' statements
 - Simplify loop that removes dead projections, rename and comment for clarity
 - Assert that projections are stuck to their parents
