x86, setup: compile with -DDISABLE_BRANCH_PROFILING

Impact: code size reduction (possibly critical)

The x86 boot and decompression code has no use of the branch profiling
constructs, so disable them.  This would bloat the setup code by as
much as 14K, eating up a fairly large chunk of the 32K area we are
guaranteed to have.
