We hard-code merger functions for merging up to 5 AST node visitor functions. This seems a reasonable number as it's common for many rules to visit the same AST node types.

However, 5 seems excessive for CFG event handlers, as using the CFG is far less common. Reduce it to 3. In the rare case that merger functions for number of CFG event handlers above this number are required, they'll be dynamically generated.

Pull request overview

This PR adjusts oxlint’s JS-side visitor compilation performance strategy by reducing the number of statically pre-defined CFG event-handler “merger” functions, relying on dynamic generation earlier for larger handler counts.

Changes:

  • Reduce pre-defined CFG merger functions from supporting up to 5 handlers down to 3.
  • Update inline comments near cfgMergers to explain the rationale for the lower CFG threshold.
