I'm working on a rustc plugin that uses the dataflow framework for MIR analysis. I've found the graphviz utilities extremely helpful for debugging. However, I had to fork the compiler to expose them since they're currently private. I would appreciate if they could be made public so I can build against a nightly instead of a custom fork. Specifically, this PR:
rustc_mir::dataflow::framework::graphviz
module.rustc_mir::util::pretty::write_mir_fn
function.Here's a concrete example of how I'm using the graphviz module: https://github.com/willcrichton/flowistry/blob/97b843b8b06b4004fbb79b5fcfca3e33c7143bc0/src/slicing/mod.rs#L186-L203
Additionally, this PR fixes a small bug in the diff code that incorrectly shows the updated object as the old object.
