[PATCH] bb-reorder: Remove a misfiring micro-optimization (PR96475)

When the compgotos pass copies the tail of blocks ending in an indirect
jump, there is a micro-optimization to not copy the last one, since the
original block will then just be deleted.  This does not work properly
if cleanup_cfg does not merge all pairs of blocks we expect it to.


v2: This also deletes the other use of single_pred_p, which has the same
problem in principle, I just never have triggered it so far.

Tested on powerpc64-linux {-m32,-m64} like before.  Is this okay for
trunk?
