 * Nodes can implement {@link Canonicalizable} or one of the two sub-interfaces {@link Unary} and
 * {@link Binary} to provide local optimizations like constant folding and strength reduction.
 * Implementations should return a replacement that is always semantically correct for the given
 * inputs, or "this" if they do not see an opportunity for improvement.<br/>
 * <br/>
 * <b>Implementations of {@link Canonicalizable#canonical(CanonicalizerTool)} or the equivalent
 * methods of the two sub-interfaces must not have any side effects.</b><br/>
 * They are not allowed to change inputs, successors or properties of any node (including the
 * current one) and they also cannot add new nodes to the graph.<br/>
 * <br/>
 * In addition to pre-existing nodes they can return newly created nodes, which will be added to the
 * graph automatically if (and only if) the effects of the canonicalization are committed.
 * Non-cyclic graphs (DAGs) of newly created nodes (i.e., one newly created node with an input to
 * another newly created node) will be handled correctly.

     * <ul>
     * <li>Returning an pre-existing node will replace the current node with the given one.</li>
     * <li>Returning a newly created node (that was not yet added to the graph) will replace the

     * the replacee are anchored in control flow (fixed nodes), the replacement will be added to the
     * control flow. It is invalid to replace a non-fixed node with a newly created fixed node
     * (because its placement in the control flow cannot be determined without scheduling).</li>

     * this way - they will be deleted automatically.</li>
