This CL changes the dispatch technique in the regex interpreter to token-threaded dispatch, if computed gotos are supported by the compiler. Otherwise old switch-based dispatch is still used (e.g. for MSVC). With computed gotos, less jumps will be emitted (no extra jump to single branch point/begin of switch) and branch prediction will be better because of no single branch point. This CL improves performance on the RexBench Benchmark suite by ~10%.
