Emilio G. Cota 8a6b28c7b5 target/arm: optimize indirect branches
Speed up indirect branches by jumping to the target if it is valid.

Softmmu measurements (see later commit for user-mode results):

Note: baseline (i.e. speedup == 1x) is QEMU v2.9.0.

- Impact on Boot time

| setup  | ARM debian jessie boot+shutdown time | stddev |
|--------+--------------------------------------+--------|
| v2.9.0 |                                 8.84 |   0.07 |
| +cross |                                 8.85 |   0.03 |
| +jr    |                                 8.83 |   0.06 |
