/**
 * The input and output stack map frames of a basic block.
 *
 * Stack map frames are computed in two steps:
 *
 * 
 *   - During the visit of each instruction in MethodWriter, the state of the frame at the end of
 *       the current basic block is updated by simulating the action of the instruction on the
 *       previous state of this so called "output frame".
 *   
- After all instructions have been visited, a fix point algorithm is used in MethodWriter to
 *       compute the "input frame" of each basic block (i.e. the stack map frame at the beginning of
 *       the basic block). See {@link MethodWriter#computeAllFrames}.
 * 
*
 *Output stack map frames are computed relatively to the input frame of the basic block, which
 * is not yet known when output frames are computed. It is therefore necessary to be able to
 * represent abstract types such as "the type at position x in the input frame locals" or "the type
 * at position x from the top of the input frame stack" or even "the type at position x in the input
 * frame, with y more (or less) array dimensions". This explains the rather complicated type format
 * used in this class, explained below.
 *
 * 
The local variables and the operand stack of input and output frames contain values called
 * "abstract types" hereafter. An abstract type is represented with 4 fields named DIM, KIND, FLAGS
 * and VALUE, packed in a single int value for better performance and memory efficiency:
 *
 * 
 *   =====================================
 *   |...DIM|KIND|.F|...............VALUE|
 *   =====================================
 * 
 *
 * 
 *   - the DIM field, stored in the 6 most significant bits, is a signed number of array
 *       dimensions (from -32 to 31, included). It can be retrieved with {@link #DIM_MASK} and a
 *       right shift of {@link #DIM_SHIFT}.
 *   
- the KIND field, stored in 4 bits, indicates the kind of VALUE used. These 4 bits can be
 *       retrieved with {@link #KIND_MASK} and, without any shift, must be equal to {@link
 *       #CONSTANT_KIND}, {@link #REFERENCE_KIND}, {@link #UNINITIALIZED_KIND}, {@link #LOCAL_KIND}
 *       or {@link #STACK_KIND}.
 *   
- the FLAGS field, stored in 2 bits, contains up to 2 boolean flags. Currently only one flag
 *       is defined, namely {@link #TOP_IF_LONG_OR_DOUBLE_FLAG}.
 *   
- the VALUE field, stored in the remaining 20 bits, contains either
 *       
 *         - one of the constants {@link #ITEM_TOP}, {@link #ITEM_ASM_BOOLEAN}, {@link
 *             #ITEM_ASM_BYTE}, {@link #ITEM_ASM_CHAR} or {@link #ITEM_ASM_SHORT}, {@link
 *             #ITEM_INTEGER}, {@link #ITEM_FLOAT}, {@link #ITEM_LONG}, {@link #ITEM_DOUBLE}, {@link
 *             #ITEM_NULL} or {@link #ITEM_UNINITIALIZED_THIS}, if KIND is equal to {@link
 *             #CONSTANT_KIND}.
 *         
- the index of a {@link Symbol#TYPE_TAG} {@link Symbol} in the type table of a {@link
 *             SymbolTable}, if KIND is equal to {@link #REFERENCE_KIND}.
 *         
- the index of an {@link Symbol#UNINITIALIZED_TYPE_TAG} {@link Symbol} in the type
 *             table of a SymbolTable, if KIND is equal to {@link #UNINITIALIZED_KIND}.
 *         
- the index of a local variable in the input stack frame, if KIND is equal to {@link
 *             #LOCAL_KIND}.
 *         
- a position relatively to the top of the stack of the input stack frame, if KIND is
 *             equal to {@link #STACK_KIND},
 *       
 *
*
 *Output frames can contain abstract types of any kind and with a positive or negative array
 * dimension (and even unassigned types, represented by 0 - which does not correspond to any valid
 * abstract type value). Input frames can only contain CONSTANT_KIND, REFERENCE_KIND or
 * UNINITIALIZED_KIND abstract types of positive or {@literal null} array dimension. In all cases
 * the type table contains only internal type names (array type descriptors are forbidden - array
 * dimensions must be represented through the DIM field).
 *
 * 
The LONG and DOUBLE types are always represented by using two slots (LONG + TOP or DOUBLE +
 * TOP), for local variables as well as in the operand stack. This is necessary to be able to
 * simulate DUPx_y instructions, whose effect would be dependent on the concrete types represented
 * by the abstract types in the stack (which are not always known).
