Tick scopes
This patch solves the scoping problem of CmmTick nodes: If we just put
CmmTicks into blocks we have no idea what exactly they are meant to
cover. Here we introduce tick scopes, which allow us to create
sub-scopes and merged scopes easily.
Notes:
* Given that the code often passes Cmm around "head-less", we have to
make sure that its intended scope does not get lost. To keep the amount
of passing-around to a minimum we define a CmmAGraphScoped type synonym
here that just bundles the scope with a portion of Cmm to be assembled
later.
* We introduce new scopes at somewhat random places, aligning with
getCode calls. This works surprisingly well, but we might have to
add new scopes into the mix later on if we find things too be too
coarse-grained.
