invoke.texi: Document -fdelete-null-pointer-checks

* invoke.texi: Document -fdelete-null-pointer-checks
        * toplev.c (flag_delete_null_pointer_checks): New.
        (f_options): Add entry for -fdelete-null-pointer-checks.
        (rest_of_compilation): Conditionalize null pointer check
        elimination on flag_delete_null_pointer_checks.
        (main): If -O2 or greater, enable -fdelete-null-pointer-checks

Perform a global common subexpression elimination pass.
This pass also performs global constant and copy propagation.
@item -fdelete-null-pointer-checks
Use global dataflow analysis to identify and eliminate useless null
pointer checks. Programs which rely on NULL pointer dereferences @emph{not}
halting the program may not work properly with this option. Use
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks to disable this optimizing for programs
which depend on that behavior.
@item -fexpensive-optimizations
Perform a number of minor optimizations that are relatively expensive.
