Modify GenerateConstantOffsetsImpl to create offsets that can be used
by indexed addressing modes. If formulae can be generated which
result in the constant offset being the same size as the recurrence,
we can generate a pre-indexed access. This allows the pointer to be
updated via the single pre-indexed access so that (hopefully) no
add/subs are required to update it for the next iteration. For small
cores, this can significantly improve performance DSP-like loops.

The Technical Reference Manuals for these two CPUs state that branching
to an unaligned 32-bit instruction incurs an extra pipeline reload
penalty. That's bad.
This also enables the optimization at -Os since it costs on average one
byte per loop in return for 1 cycle per iteration, which is pretty good
going.
