Currently TargetTransformInfo::getPredictableBranchThreshold() method
returns hardcoded value 99. This value affects on the decision whether
to convert select instruction to branch or not in several passes:
SelectOptimize, CodeGenPrepare, SimplifyCFG.

It would be useful to make possible to play with that threshold in order
to test select-optimize heuristics.
