We had a off-by-one bounds check error when checking if we should
jump to the default block in a br-table. Instead of always jumping
to the default block when we have a jump table with 0 targets we
would try to compute an offset past the end of the table.
This sometimes would not crash, but it would crash if the there was
no block after the br_table, thus adding a cold block would cause a
segfault.
The actual fix is quite simple, do not count the default block
as a jump table entry when computing the limits.
This commit also does a bunch of cleanup and adding some comments
to the br_table emission code.
* Initial forward-edge CFI implementation
Give the user the option to start all basic blocks that are targets
of indirect branches with the BTI instruction introduced by the
Branch Target Identification extension to the Arm instruction set
architecture.

* Refactor `from_artifacts` to avoid second `make_executable` (#1)
This involves "parsing" twice but this is parsing just the header of an
ELF file so it's not a very intensive operation and should be ok to do
twice.
* Address the code review feedback

* cranelift: Restrict `br_table` to `i32` indices
In #4498 it was proposed that we should only accept `i32` indices
to `br_table`. The rationale for this is that larger types lead the
users to a false sense of flexibility (since we don't support jump
tables larger than u32's), and narrower types are not well tested
paths that would be safer if we removed them.
