  // equivalent of a ValueT.

  // using ValueRefT = ...

  // objects.
  //
  // using InstT = ... must be a subclass of Value

  // has global methods predecessors() and successors() that return
  // the list of incoming CFG edges and outgoing CFG edges
  // respectively.
  //
  // using BlockT = ...

  // A FunctionT represents a CFG along with arguments and return values. It is
  // the smallest complete unit of code in a Module.
  //
  // The compiler produces an error here if this class is implicitly
  // specialized due to an instantiation. An explicit specialization
  // of this template needs to be added before the instantiation point
  // indicated by the compiler.
