Make graph dumping a bit more robust when there is no method, enable debug in the startCompiler method, add context and scope for snippets installation Made IGV display graphs even if some edges are problematic When schedule failed don't use it

/**
 * The compiler-provided part of the bi-directional interface between the compiler and the runtime system of a virtual machine for the instruction set defined in
 * {@link com.oracle.max.graal.compiler.graphbuilder.Bytecodes}.
 *
 * The target hardware architecture is represented by {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiArchitecture} and the specific target machine
 * environment for a compiler instance is represented by {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiTarget}.
 * <p>
 * A {@code CiResult} encapsulates
 * {@linkplain com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiStatistics compilation statistics}, possible {@linkplain com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiBailout error state}
 * and the {@linkplain com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiTargetMethod compiled code and metadata}.
 * {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiCodePos} and {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiDebugInfo} provide detailed information to the
 * runtime to support debugging and deoptimization of the compiled code.
 * <p>
 * The compiler manipulates {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiValue} instances that have a {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiKind}, and are
 * immutable. A concrete {@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiValue value} is one of the following subclasses:
 * <ul>
 * <li>{@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiConstant}: a constant value.
 * <li>{@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiRegisterValue}: a value stored in a {@linkplain com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiRegister target machine register}.
 * <li>{@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiStackSlot}: a spill slot or an outgoing stack-based argument in a method's frame.
 * <li>{@link com.oracle.max.cri.ci.CiAddress}: an address in target machine memory.
 * <li>{@link com.oracle.max.graal.compiler.lir.CiVariable}: a value (cf. virtual register) that is yet to be bound to a target machine location (physical register or memory address).
 *</ul>
