peel-1.c: New testcase.
* gcc.dg/tree-prof/peel-1.c: New testcase. * loop-unroll.c (decide_peel_simple): Simple peeling makes sense even with simple loops; bound number of branches only when FDO is not available. (decide_unroll_stupid): Mention that num_loop_branches heuristics is off. From-SVN: r192718
