Log:
Thumb2: When applying branch optimizations, visit branches in reverse order.

The order in which branches appear in ImmBranches is approximately their
order within the function body. By visiting later branches first, we reduce
the distance between earlier forward branches and their targets, making it
more likely that the cbn?z optimization, which can only apply to forward
branches, will succeed for those earlier branches.
