The benchmarking summarized in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-May/113525.html showed
this is beneficial for a wide range of cores.
As is to be expected, quite a few small adaptations are needed to the
regressions tests, as the difference in scheduling results in:
- Quite a few small instruction schedule differences.
- A few changes in register allocation decisions caused by different
instruction schedules.
- A few changes in IfConversion decisions, due to a difference in
instruction schedule and/or the estimated cost of a branch mispredict.

Having an enum member named Default is quite confusing: Is it distinct
from the others?
This patch removes that member and instead uses Optional<Reloc> in
places where we have a user input that still hasn't been maped to the
default value, which is now clear has no be one of the remaining 3
options.
