Richard Sandiford 03528f346a [SystemZ] Fix thinko in long branch pass
The original version of the pass could underestimate the length of a backward
branch in cases like:

    alignment to N bytes or more
    ...
    relaxable branch A
    ...
 foo: (aligned to M<N bytes)
    ...
 bar: (aligned to N bytes)
    ...
    relaxable branch B to foo

We don't add any misalignment gap for "bar" because N bytes of alignment
had already been reached earlier in the function.  In this case, assuming
that A is relaxed can push "foo" closer to "bar", and make B appear to be
in range.  Similar problems can occur for forward branches.

I don't think it's possible to create blocks with mixed alignments as
things stand, not least because we haven't yet defined getPrefLoopAlignment()
for SystemZ (that would need benchmarking).  So I don't think we can test
this yet.

Thanks to Rafael Espíndola for spotting the bug.
