EffectAnalyzer previously considered atomic operations to be ordered only with operations that read or write Wasm memories. But they should be ordered with all operations that read or write the machine's memory, which includes things like globals, tables, and the GC heap. Fix the problem. One test is updated now that memory.grow (which is atomic) is ordered with global accesses.

I guess this regressed for a good reason, though it's hard to tell - please add a targeted test for this.

What's the best way to test effects.h? Is there an optimization that tries to reorder things in an especially predictable way?

SimplifyLocals might be easiest. It does
(local.set $x (..value..))
(..effect..)
(local.get $x)
=>
;; local.set removed
(..effect..)
(..value..) ;; get replaced, value moved past effect, if that was valid

Actually why did this regress? I don't see an atomic operation here...

It's the memory.grow, as mentioned in the commit message.

Wait, is memory.grow atomic even when atomics are disabled? That is the case in the test.

(and that seems harmful for optimization of MVP code)

Yes, it currently is. I agree we should fix that.
