[MIR trans] Optimize trans for biased switches

Currently, all switches in MIR are exhausitive, meaning that we can have
a lot of arms that all go to the same basic block, the extreme case
being an if-let expression which results in just 2 possible cases, be
might end up with hundreds of arms for large enums.

To improve this situation and give LLVM less code to chew on, we can
detect whether there's a pre-dominant target basic block in a switch
and then promote this to be the default target, not translating the
corresponding arms at all.

In combination with #33544 this makes unoptimized MIR trans of
nickel.rs as fast as using old trans and greatly improves the times for
optimized builds, which are only 30-40% slower instead of ~300%.
