Move the emission of strict enum range metadata behind a flag (the same

flag as GCC uses: -fstrict-enums). There is a *lot* of code making
unwarranted assumptions about the underlying type of enums, and it
doesn't seem entirely reasonable to eagerly break all of it.

Much more importantly, the current state of affairs is *very* good at
optimizing based upon this information, which causes failures that are
very distant from the actual enum. Before we push for enabling this by
default, I think we need to implement -fcatch-undefined-behavior support
for instrumenting and trapping whenever we store or load a value outside
of the range. That way we can track down the misbehaving code very
quickly.

I discussed this with Rafael, and currently the only important cases he
is aware of are the bool range-based optimizations which are staying
hard enabled. We've not seen any issue with those either, and they are
much more important for performance.
