About half of these patches are focused on reducing the number of
full 64-bit constants that need to be generated for addresses:

E.g. patch 5, looking through the function descriptor.  If the
program is built --disable-pie, the elements of the function
descriptors are all 32-bit constants.

E.g. the end result of indirect jump threading + TCG_REG_TB.
Before, we reserve 6 insn slots to generate the full 64-bit address.
After, we use 2 insns -- addis + ld -- to load the full 64-bit
address from the indirection slot.

The second patch could probably be reverted.  I'd planned to be
able to use the same conditional call + tail call scheme as ARM,
but I'd forgotten the need for a conditional store to go along
with that.  OTOH, it might still turn out to be useful somewhere.
