nickdesaulniers added a comment. Nice! Diff 466919 fixes up my confusion regarding Slot vs SlotID. Though I do like how the Slots are sorted, since it keeps the Offsets in order FWICT. Maybe we could drop the SlotID column, then print out Slot for the variables, rather than the SlotID? I mean, I only really care about the Offset in the order of Slot, so maybe an aggressive suggestion would be to drop Slot and SlotID columns. (Yes, that's more work for the pretty printer to do, but it makes it clearer to the developer debugging the warning). Or print the variable identifier as a column in the table (thought that might upset the nice table alignment). Do we ever re-use stack slots for different variables with non-overlapping live ranges? If so, then a stack slot is potentially one-to-many variables, so putting it in a table might not look great.
For the next potential improvement: I think DWARF (when present) contains information about which variables where spilled where on the stack. It looks like they are not part of `MF.getVariableDbgInfo()`. Maybe we can print that information, too? If a particular variable is being spilled often, then the developer may be able to shorten the live range manually somehow, like re-materialization.

Seems like our initial slots are contiguous with Fixed allocations.
