Flow analysis: get rid of "identity" state. Previously, flow analysis was using the `_identity` state for two purposes: 1. As the "if true" state for "false" and the "if false" state for "true". 2. As the base state for the "break" and "continue" code paths of loops, before any "break" or "continue" statements had been seen. For the first purpose, it is more consistent to use `_current.setReachable(false)`. This ensures that in code disabled by `if (false)`, promotions are not lost. For the second purpose, it is easier to just use `null` as the base state. There is a small behavioral change: previously in unreachable code, if we used the `_identity` state, all variables were considered assigned; otherwise they were considered assigned or not according to the state of the code prior to the branch point that caused the variables to become unassigned. Now, unreachable code consistently has the latter behavior.

Dart is:
Optimized for UI: Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation
Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app
Fast on all platforms: Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web
Dart has flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:
Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.
Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
Dart is free and open source.
