Description

Probably needs a bit of work on the Julia side, but it would be interesting to integrate with the LLVM remarks system.

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/9e65929a8e2c9d1d6fd9cd4cefaab58420387b2f/llvm/lib/IR/LLVMRemarkStreamer.cpp#L139

Research direction

Start by reading LLVMRemarkStreamer.cpp at the linked location and the LLVM Remarks documentation to understand the integration surface. Then inspect Cthulhu.jl's Julia-side entry points for compiler or LLVM interaction. Done should mean that LLVM remarks are exposed through Cthulhu.jl, but the issue does not define the interface or acceptance tests.
