The original version didn't properly account for the base register
being modified before the final jump, so caused miscompilations in
Chromium and LLVM. I've fixed this and tested with an LLVM self-host
(I don't have the means to build & test Chromium).
The general idea remains the same: in pathological cases jump tables
can be too far away from the instructions referencing them (like other
constants) so they need to be movable.
Should fix PR23627.

Previously, they were forced to immediately follow the actual branch
instruction. This was usually OK (the LEAs actually accessing them got emitted
nearby, and weren't usually separated much afterwards). Unfortunately, a
sufficiently nasty phi elimination dumps many instructions right before the
basic block terminator, and this can increase the range too much.
This patch frees them up to be placed as usual by the constant islands pass,
and consequently has to slightly modify the form of TBB/TBH tables to refer to
a PC-relative label at the final jump. The other jump table formats were
already position-independent.
