Description
### What's hard to do? (limit 100 words)
If you run a jit until blocked we have deadlock detection but we do not have livelock detection of any kind. Even trivial livelocks like an empty proc will make the 'until-blocked' useless.
### Current best alternative workaround (limit 100 words)
Perform DFE to remove empty procs before running the proc jit and avoid other livelock patterns.
### Your view of the "best case XLS enhancement" (limit 100 words)
Detect at least trivial live-lock conditions and return errors if they are entered.
