    [Interpreter] Enable assignments in expressions. · a1ba971c
    oth authored
    This change introduces register re-mapping to avoid assignment hazards
    in binary expressions. Expressions that cause problems typically have
    the form y = x + (x = 4);. The problem occurs because the lhs value
    evaluates to the register holding x. The rhs updates that register and
    then applying the operation would use the new value as the lhs.
    
    By tracking loads and stores in binary expressions the generator is now
    able to detect when condition occurs and uses a temporary register for
    the rhs value. When the binary expression evaluation is complete the
    variable is updated with the latest temporary.
    
    A new bytecode Mov performs this update without touching the
    accumulator.
