Add a fourth --smc-check= variant, --smc-check=all-non-file. This
adds self-modifying-code checks to all guest code taken from mappings
which are not file backed, but omits checks in code from file backed
mappings. This has the effect of giving complete smc-coverage of JIT
generated code -- since that is invariably generated into anonymous
mapped areas -- without burdening non-JIT generated code with such
checks. Running Firefox 6, --smc-check=all-non-file reduces by a
factor of between 3 and 10 the number of translations requiring a self
check, compared to --smc-check=all. These changes depend on the vex
interface changes in r2158.
