I observed in Winch that the offset from the stack pointer for locals written to with local.set and local.tee are slightly wrong when they are writing to a local that had been spilled by a prior operation. The cause appears to be that we get the address of the local (that is, the offset from the stack pointer) before invoking self.context.pop_to_reg and then use that address to perform the store operation. self.context.pop_to_reg may change the value of the stack pointer if the value on top of the stack is in memory. So the previously calculated stack pointer offset of the local may not be correct when storing a value into that address. This change has us calculate the address of the local (that is, the offset from the stack pointer) after invoking self.context.pop_to_reg to avoid that problem.

saulecabrera created PR review comment:

One minor nit on this comment: it won't change the local's offset, it will change the calculation of that offset from the current position of the stack pointer. I'd suggest rewording this a bit to something like: _Need to get the local address before popping the value given that pop_to_reg will pop the machine stack, causing a wrong address to be calculated_
