[PR tree-optimization/71335] Fix thread path management in backwards threader



As previously noted, there's a buglet in the handling of the stack-of-blocks representation of the thread path in the backwards threader.

In particular there's a case where we can get the same block pushed onto that stack twice. My workaround for that lameness could result in incorrect code if the last block in the path actually branches back to itself as seen in the 71335 testcase.

This patch removes the hacks and avoids putting the duplicate on the stack-of-blocks path earlier.

Bootstrapped and regression tested on x86_64 linux. Additionally, I did bootstraps and regression testing with additional verification that the state of the stack was unchanged across the call to fsm_find_control_statement_thread_paths (that verification is not in this patch, but could be easily added as a follow-up).

Installed on the trunk,

Jeff
