 There are 2 common forms for this data: one used internally that compresses the data somewhat and one used in the compiler.
 They contain the same basic info, but the compiler version is all mutable while the version used internally is not.

-     3. (if entry 2 is non-zero) the integer index into edges[].codelocs, to interpret
-        recursively for each function in the inlining stack, or zero indicating to use
