To run:

1. Load a program into a state, e.g. using LoadELF.
2. Patch the program if necessary: e.g. using PatchGo for Go programs, PatchStack for empty initial stack, etc.
3. Implement the PreimageOracle interface
4. Instrument the emulator with the state, and pre-image oracle, using NewInstrumentedState
5. Step through the instrumented state with Step(proof), where proof==true if witness data should be generated. Steps are faster with proof==false.
6. Optionally repeat the step on-chain by calling MIPS.sol and PreimageOracle.sol, using the above witness data.
