accel/tcg: increase default code gen buffer size for 64 bit
While 32mb is certainly usable a full system boot ends up flushing the codegen buffer nearly 100 times. Increase the default on 64 bit hosts to take advantage of all that spare memory. After this change I can boot my tests system without any TB flushes. As we usually run more CONFIG_USER binaries at a time in typical usage we aren't quite as profligate for user-mode code generation usage. We also bring the static code gen defies to the same place to keep all the reasoning in the comments together.
