Move the bytecode optimizer upstream so that its results are saved in pyc files and not re-optimized upon import. Saves a bit of startup time while still remaining decoupled from the rest of the compiler.

Hm, shouldn't the bytecode optimizer only be used when -O is used, and hence pyo files are being written?
