This problem first computes the IN and OUT bitvectors for the
- must-initialized registers problems, which is a forward problem.
- It gives the set of registers for which we MUST have an available

+ basic block. Sets generate a definition, while clobbers kill
a definition.
In and out bitvectors are built for each basic block and are indexed by

Then, the in and out sets for the LIVE problem itself are computed.
These are the logical AND of the IN and OUT sets from the LR problem
