Auto merge of #105812 - ojeda:no-jump-tables, r=nikic
Add `-Zno-jump-tables`

This flag mimics GCC/Clang's `-fno-jump-tables` [1][2], which makes the codegen backend avoid generating jump tables when lowering switches.

In the case of LLVM, the `"no-jump-tables"="true"` function attribute is added to every function.

The kernel currently needs it for x86 when enabling IBT [3], as well as for Alpha (plus VDSO objects in MIPS/LoongArch).
