Description

Hi,
I've noticed that the FuzzIL LoadGlobal opcode is referenced in various places including the readme. But when I look into the opcodes definition it doesn't seem to be there. I was wondering if it has been superseded by LoadBuiltin. If so should I should update the documentation?
Happy Holidays,

Research direction

Start by comparing the README references to FuzzIL's opcode definition and the existing LoadBuiltin entry. Determine whether LoadBuiltin superseded LoadGlobal; done means the documentation and opcode references consistently describe the current opcode set.
