X86_64 QBE: use RIP addressing

Take advantage of RIP addressing in 64 bit mode to improve the code
generation for accesses to the constant area as well as packed switches.
Avoid computing the address of the start of the method, which is needed
in 32 bit mode.

To do this, we add a new 'pseudo-register' kRIPReg to minimize the
changes needed to get the new addressing mode to be generated.
