// These interfaces are implemented by ISA-specific backends to abstract away the details, and allow the register
// allocators to work on any ISA.

// TODO: the interfaces are not stabilized yet, especially x64 will need some changes. E.g. x64 has an addressing mode
// 	where index can be in memory. That kind of info will be useful to reduce the register pressure, and should be leveraged
// 	by the register allocators, like https://docs.rs/regalloc2/latest/regalloc2/enum.OperandConstraint.html
