This proves costly when used in e.g. BlockMerger inside of iterations over BlockLists, leading to quadratic or worse complexities as a function of bytecode length. In several cases, only a few Blocks were changed, and there was no need to go over the whole graph, but until now there was no less blunt tool for verification than IR::verify.

As a complement, expand_with_neighbors provides a way to also capture the neighbors of the "modified set" ahead of modification, so that afterwards the appropriate asserts can be made on all blocks which might possibly have been changed. All this should let us remove the expensive IR::verify calls, while still performing equivalent (or stricter) assertions.

Is this as it should be?
