Before this patch, jit.dg/test-benchmark.c at optlevel 0, 100 iterations
showed "rest of compilation" as taking a significant chunk of time:

rest of compilation     :   1.53 (64%) usr   0.06 (32%) sys   1.60 (27%) wall   
 1388 kB ( 6%) ggc

This turned out to be almost entirely spent inside initialize_rtl; adding a
TV_INITIALIZE_RTL for this indicates this cost clearly:

initialize rtl          :   1.46 (61%) usr   0.01 ( 5%) sys   1.42 (24%) wall   
 1156 kB ( 5%) ggc
rest of compilation     :   0.05 ( 2%) usr   0.00 ( 0%) sys   0.00 ( 0%) wall   
  232 kB ( 1%) ggc

I'm experimenting with a followup patch to amortize this away by making RTL
initialization a one-time deal, but in the meantime, this patch adds
accounting for it.

OK for trunk? (assuming bootstrap and testing)

gcc/ChangeLog:
        * timevar.def (TV_INITIALIZE_RTL): New.
        * toplev.c (initialize_rtl): Use an auto_timevar to account this
        function's time to TV_INITIALIZE_RTL.
We should done this a long time ago -- initialization/startup items are a real issue.

OK.
