Fix off-by-one in TCO
Now we have the ability to define a generator in jq:
def for(cond; update):
def _for:
if cond then ., (update | _for) else . end;
_for;
for(. < 10; . + 1) # generates numbers between `.` and 10
Running this by hand with --debug-dump-disasm (with a fix for that
coming up next) we can see that the call to _for is optimized:
_for:0:
0000 DUP
0001 CALL_JQ cond:0^1
0005 JUMP_F 0022
0007 POP
0008 FORK 0012
0010 JUMP 0020
0012 CALL_JQ update:1^1
0016 TAIL_CALL_JQ _for:0^1
0020 JUMP 0023
0022 POP
0023 RET
And timing this with 1000, 10000, 100000 iterations shows that
indeed we must be applying TCO; otherwise, without TCO, this gets
very slow very quickly.
