Before this change, switch codegen would interleave bytecode like this:
(test for case 1)
(code for case 1)
(test for case 2)
(code for case 2)
This meant that we often had to make many large jumps while looking for
the matching case, since code for each case can be huge.
It now looks like this instead:
(test for case 1)
(test for case 2)
(code for case 1)
(code for case 2)
This way, we can just fall through the tests until we hit one that fits,
without having to make any large jumps.
