Cowardly refuse to insert instructions after a terminator.

[arnt]

Summary

Allowing instructions to be added after a terminator just invites trouble later. Better to assert early, so the bug is easy to spot.

FWIW, I picked reviewers by taking the last two people who changed the file. I hope reviewing this isn't too much of an inconvenience ;)

LebedevRI pointed out that the assert ought to have a message; thanks.

Thanks for working on this. Two thoughts:

• Would the old test fail with the new assert? I don’t yet see why it would.
• Might help to preemptively test this with a stage 2 clang self-host, in case any in-tree code “fixes up” extra terminators.

The old test did break, yes, that's why I changed it at all. The six branch instructions I moved down were all followed by phi nodes.

I'll start a clang rebuild one night. Haven't done it yet.
