I want it to be overridable, so here's what I ended up with.
Testing underway; ok to install if it succeeds?
We need accurate length information to be able to optimize away
locviews that would contain only zero-numbered views, and even to
output correct view numbers. E.g., if we assume an insn has length
nonzero, i.e., that it will advance PC, we conclude the view number
after it is zero. If the assumption turns out to be false, the
assembler view zero assert will catch the mistake, but only if we're
using a view-capable assembler. Otherwise, view numbers will silently
go out of sync between the compiler and the assembler, and thus the
debug info consumer.
Unfortunately, a number of targets seem to fail the essential property
for this to work, namely, that get_min_attr_length() be zero for every
insn that might have length zero.
We thus introduce a target hook that indicates whether we can rely on
the length attribute for this purpose, and a param that can be used to
override it, for testing purposes or to work around errors.
