On 64-bit target, prefer usng RDPC over CALL to get the value of %pc.
This is faster on modern processors (Niagara T1 and newer) and avoids polluting
the processor's predictor state.

The old behavior of using a fake CALL is still done when tuning for classic
UltraSPARC processors, since RDPC is much slower there.

A quick pgbench test on a SPARC T4 shows about 2% speedup on SELECT loads,
and about 7% speedup on INSERT/UPDATE loads.
