by gabriel.scherercompute the same separability signatures in either "(no) flat float" modes
In -no-flat-float-array mode, instead of always returning
`best_msig` (the most permissive signature), we first compute the
flat-float-array separability signature -- falling back to `best_msig`
if it fails.
This discipline is conservative: it never rejects -no-flat-float-array
programs. At the same time it guarantees that, for any program that is
also accepted in -flat-float-array mode, the same separability will be
inferred in the two modes. In particular, the same .cmi files and
digests will be produced.
Before we introduced this hack, the production of different .cmi files
would break the build system of the compiler itself, when trying to
build a -no-flat-float-array system from a bootstrap compiler itself
using -flat-float-array. See #9291.
