// This function performs an if-else on the given condition, calling either `__if()` or `__else()`. The `__if()` branch is annotated as being likely.
//
// However, it increases the likelihood that the `__else()` branch will be inlined if `__cond` is known to be a constant by
// the optimizer, which LLVM currently doesn't do when naively applying the [[likely]] attribute.
