Log:
[ARM] Add option to force fast-isel

The ARM backend has some logic that only allows the fast-isel to be enabled for
subtargets where it is known to be stable. This adds a backend option to
override this and force the fast-isel to be used for any target, to allow it to
be tested.

This is an ARM-specific option, because no other backend disables the fast-isel
on a per-subtarget basis.
