more cache friendly. This changes the mechanism from being a table of
pointers to (guest address, translated code pairs) to being a table of
pairs (guest address, pointer to translated code). The effect ranges
from zero up to about 20% performance improvement on memcheck, the
biggest effects being seen for programs which jump around a large
number of blocks of code and whose data set does not fit in L2.

Use 'ctr' rather than 'lr' for indirect jumps, so as not to trash the
branch predictor(s) for returns from generated code. Makes a big
difference on ppc970 (and POWER4).

as requested by Greg Parker. (The ppc32/Darwin dispatch loop is
different to the ppc32/Linux one, for example.)
