Bug 43961 (a regression in 4.5 and later) is the ARM back end
generating an out-of-range Thumb-1 branch because the calculation (in
architecture-independent code) of the size of a jump table fails to
allow for alignment.

Jump table alignment should be allowed for through ADDR_VEC_ALIGN, but
the ASM back end has a comment /* Jump table alignment is explicit in
ASM_OUTPUT_CASE_LABEL.  */ and defines ADDR_VEC_ALIGN to 0, so meaning
that calculations relating to branch ranges fail to allow for the
alignment.

Bug 43961 has an old patch attached to define ADDR_VEC_ALIGN properly.
Although that fixes the Thumb-1 issue, it introduces other problems
for Thumb-2 jump tables because of an interaction between
ADDR_VEC_ALIGN and CASE_VECTOR_SHORTEN_MODE.  When
CASE_VECTOR_SHORTEN_MODE is defined, the size of jump table entries,
and so the alignment required for the jump table, can be changed in
shorten_branches, but the alignment of the label before the jump table
has already been computed based on the original mode, and is not then
updated for the changed mode.  This results in alignment being used
before a Thumb-2 tbb jump table, which needs to follow the tbb
instruction immediately.

This patch arranges for shorten_branches to recalculate the alignments
of labels before jump tables if CASE_VECTOR_SHORTEN_MODE.  The
recalculation logic may not match the logic for the original
calculation in all cases - doing so would probably require additional
information to be stored at the time of the original calculation so it
is still available for the recalculation.  But I believe the
recalculated value based on ADDR_VEC_ALIGN should always work - and in
the cases where, as for the Thumb-2 tbb case, overalignment will not
work, only the recalculated value is going to be correct.

(There is no testcase in this patch because this sort of thing is
always extremely sensitive to slight changes in code generation
between compiler versions and tends to require large,
version-dependent testcases.)

Tested with no regressions with cross to arm-none-linux-gnueabi (both
default configuration, testing both -marm and -mthumb, and v7-A, again
testing both -marm and -mthumb).  OK to commit?
