PR target/32803: Add -Oz option for improved clang compatibility.

This patch adds support for an -Oz command line option, aggressively
optimizing for size at the expense of performance.  GCC's current -Os
provides a reasonable balance of size and performance, whereas -Oz is
probably only useful for code size benchmarks such as CSiBE.  Or so I
thought until I read in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25408853
that clang's -Oz sometimes outperforms -O[23s]; I suspect modern instruction
decode stages can treat "pushq $1; popq %rax" as a short uop encoding.

Instead of introducing a new global variable, this patch simply abuses
the existing optimize_size by setting its value to 2.  The only change
in behaviour is the tweak to the i386 backend implementing the suggestion
in PR target/32803 to use a short push/pop sequence for loading small
immediate values (-128..127) on x86, matching the behaviour of LLVM.

On x86_64, the simple function:
int foo() { return 25; }

currently generates with -Os:
foo:    movl    $25, %eax       // 5 bytes
        ret

With the proposed -Oz, it generates:
foo:    pushq   $25             // 2 bytes
        popq    %rax            // 1 byte
        ret

On CSiBE, this results in a 0.94% improvement (3703513 bytes total
down to 3668516 bytes).
