Details

Summary

This debugger was designed to catch places where the old update API was
failing to be used correctly. As I've removed the update API, it no
longer serves any purpose. We can introduce new debugging aid passes
around any future work w.r.t. updating AAs.

Note that I've updated the documentation here, but really I need to
rewrite the documentation to carefully spell out the ideas around
stateful AA and how things are changing in the AA world. However, I'm
hoping to do that as a follow-up to the refactoring of the AA
infrastructure to work in both old and new pass managers so that I can
write the documentation specific to that world.
