Enable vectorizer-maximize-bandwidth by default.
Summary:
vectorizer-maximize-bandwidth is generally useful in terms of performance. I've tested the impact of changing this to default on speccpu benchmarks on sandybridge machines. The result shows non-negative impact:

The regression on 453.povray seems real, but is due to secondary effects as all hot functions are bit-identical with and without the flag.
I started this patch to consult upstream opinions on this. It will be greatly appreciated if the community can help test the performance impact of this change on other architectures so that we can decided if this should be target-dependent.
