Add support to optionally limit the size of jump tables.
Many high-performance processors have a dedicated branch predictor for
indirect branches, commonly used with jump tables. As sophisticated as such
branch predictors are, they tend to have well defined limits beyond which
their effectiveness is hampered or even nullified. One such limit is the
number of possible destinations for a given indirect branches that such
branch predictors can handle.
This patch considers a limit that a target may set to the number of
destination addresses in a jump table.
