Remove two commands that were documented as "debug commands"
and where "you probably don't want to use this". We never
intended to support them, and at least one problem report
boiled down to using this when it shouldn't have been used.
Update the docs on the existing register commands to talk a
bit more about register access and cache behavior. (Those
debug commands existed largely to *bypass* the cache.) And
fix some minor doc goofs that snuck in with recent changes,
renaming "armv4_5" as "arm" and "arm9tdmi" as "arm9".

Rewrite means for scripts to register help text for commands. These
cause the new commands to be stored in the command heirarchy, with
built-in commands; however, they will never be invoked there because
they do not receive a command handler. The same trick is used for
the Jim commands.
Remove the old helpers that were used to register commands.
For the startup.tcl code to use built-in commands, the context must be
associated with the interpreter temporarily. This will be required to
add help text.
Rewrites 'help' command in C, using new 'cmd_help' for display. Adds the
built-in 'help' COMMAND_HANDLER to provide better output than the
TCL-based script command (e.g. heirarchical listing of commands).
The help string is stored in the command structure, though it conitnues
to be pushed into the Jim environment. The current idiomatic usage
suggests the addition of a usage field as well, to provide two levels
of detail for users to consume (i.e. terse usage list, or verbose help).
Creates a helper function, cmd_help, which displays the help string
for a single command. Presently, it is called from the loop in help.
The routine has been extended to allow indentation of command groups,
so an improved help command can improve the display of information.
Refactors the command registration to use helpers to simplify the code.
The unregistration routines were made more flexible by allowing them
to operate on a single command, such that one can remove all of a
commands children in one step (perhaps before adding back a 'config'
subcommand that allows getting the others back). Eliminates a bit
of duplicated code and adds full API documentation for these routines.
The previous version never wrote dirty registers
for non-current CPU modes ... fix that.

We *should* be able to read and write registers in any core mode,
instead of being stuck with whatever mode the core was when we
entered debug state. This patch makes them work.
Note that the current restore_context() only handles the current
mode; writing to other-mode registers is a NOP without a followup
patch fixing that. Also, that SPSR access needed some bugfixes;
it was confused with CPSR.
Secure monitor mode also seems dubious; there's probably more to
be done before that's sufficiently understood by the debugger.

Create a generic register_cache_invalidate(), and use it to
replace three all-but-identical core-specific routines:
- armv4_5_invalidate_core_regs()
- armv7m_invalidate_core_regs
- mips32_invalidate_core_regs() too.
Make cache->num_regs be unsigned, avoiding various errors.
Net code shrink and simplification.

Move bulk of for-loop to a new static command helper function.
Adds handle_nand_list_drivers command handler, registered as
'nand drivers'.
Improves command help text and error reporting.
Move variables to point of first use, reducing their scope.
Add driver_name temporary to help arguments be changed later.
Eliminates the useless 'found' variable, changing the code to terminate
the loop immediate and return its success.
After adding support for referencing banks by name, renames
the COMMAND_HELPERs appropriately:
flash_command_get_bank_by_num -> flash_command_get_bank
nand_command_get_device_by_num -> flash_command_get_device
Add get_flash_bank_by_name (and get_nand_device_by_name) helpers
to retrieves struct flash_bank * (struct nand_device *) given a
driver name and an (optional) driver-specific bank index.
These are used to extend flash_command_get_bank_by_num (and
nand_command_get_device_by_num) to allow all flash (nand) commands to
reference defined banks by name, not just by number.
To avoid some code duplication, add the flash/common.[ch] files to hold
functionality common to both types driver. The first two methods are
helpers for the above routines to find a bank specified by a "name" or
"name.index" string. get_flash_name_index() finds the '.index' portion,
while flash_driver_name_matches() performs the string portion matching.
Just pre-allocate memory for the cached register value.
Shrinks heap overhead; increases locality-of-reference.

Combine register names with other per-register data into a
single template structure. This saves space, and makes it
easier to change how registers get handled (by shrinking
the number of places that care about cache indices).

The examine() method has some conceptual breakage. Cope
with it by manually splitting out the run-once parts from
the after-each-reset parts ... this gets rid of memory
leaks and speeds up resets after the first one.

We don't want an ARMv7-specific core state enumeration just to
add ThumbEE state. Update the generic stuff to handle that,
and replace the V7-specific bits with it.
For Cortex-A8: on debug entry, check both the T and J bits
instead of just the T bit. When the J bit is set, set the
right state and warn appropriately.
(And while we're at it, move the generic arm struct to the front
of the v7a structure, for somewhat better code generation.)

The only way ARMv7-A modes differ from ARMv4/ARMv5 flavors
is that v7-A is allowed to include "Secure monitor" support.
That's now handled by our standard top-level ARM code ... so
phase out the stuff that's specific to ARMv7-A.

Removing the fast command eliminates the fast_and_dangerous global,
which was used only by arm7_9_common as an initializer. The command
is not called in the tree; instead, more explicit commands are used.
The jim_global_long function was not used anywhere in the tree.
Adds the foo/bar commands to provide more working examples of command
argument parsing, including the new handle_command_parse_bool helper.
Updates hello command help text to provide useful information.
This patch changes the behavior of all boolean parsing callers to
accept any one of "true/enable/on/yes/1" or "false/disable/off/no/0".
Since one particular pair will be most appropriate in any given
situation, the specific macros should continue to be used in
order to display the most informative error messages possible.
Rewrite arm11_handle_bool to provide a generic on/off command helper.
Refactors COMMAND_PARSE_BOOL to use new command_parse_bool helper,
which gets reused by the new command_parse_bool_any helper.
This later helper is called by the new command helper function to
accepts any on/off, enable/disable, true/false, yes/no, or 0/1 parameter.
Updates all command parsing of simple "enable" and "disable" arguments.
A few case in the tree use a tri-state or extended arguments, which
cannot use this simple macro.
Simlifies the xscale icache/dcache command handler logic.
Adds several macros similar to COMMAND_PARSE_NUMBER, but for parsing
boolean command arguments. Two flavors are provided to provide
drop-in compatibility with existing code, allow for the elimination
of a lot of code bloat while improving the error checking and reporting.
COMMAND_PARSE_ON_OFF parses "on"/"off" command parameters.
COMMAND_PARSE_ENABLE parses "enable"/"disable" command parameters.
Both print the error and return an error out of the calling function.
Change the layout to show the "Secure Monitor" registers too,
when they're present.
Instead of lining registers for each of six (or seven) modes up
in adjacent vertical columns, display each mode's registers (or
shadows) in a single block, avoiding duplicate value displays.
This also lets us shrink the line length to fits in standard 80
character lines ... six or seven 18-character columns can't fit.
Relabel "r13" as "sp", so it's more meaningful.

If the core doesn't provide an optimized version of this
method, provide one without core-specific optimizations.
Use this to make Cortex-A8 support the "arm reg" command.

have the "set" log a "not halted" error too, and make sure
that the "valid" flag is set on successful reads.

ARMv7-A doesn't need to duplicate all the standard ARM code
for register handling.
- Switch Cortex-A8 to use the standard register code
- Remove duplicated infrastructure from ARMv7-A
- Have ARMv7-A arch_state() show CPSR, like other ARMs
Add comments to show where the Cortex-A8 isn't actually doing
the right thing for register reads/writes, unless core happens
to be in the right mode to start with. (Looks like maybe there
may be generic confusion between saved/current PSR values in all
the ARM code ...)
Make related ARMv7-A and Cortex-A8 symbols properly static.

Teach the "armv4_5" register code to understand about the
secure monitor mode:
- Add the other three shadowed registers to the arrays
- Support another internal mode number (sigh) in mappings
- Catch malloc/calloc failures building that register cache

The previous changes to move the startup TCL code resulted in segfaults
during startup. This seemingly innocuous patch fixes the problem.
I would explain why changing from 'foo[]' to '*foo' caused this issue,
but the difference seems superficial. For now, this hot fix will do,
but this issue might bear further scrutiny.
Moves definitions for each layer into their own file, eliminating
layering violations in the built-in TCL code. Updates src/Makefile.am
rules to include all files in the final startup.tcl input file, and
others Makefile.am rules to distribute the new files in our packages.
The recent migration broke them, the fixes broken them in a new way,
but this should restore them to working order. Eliminates the
temporary variable, as the CMD_NAME macro can once again be use
in routines that increment CMD_ARGV without nasty side-effects.
Also, this is on the path to increasing the word size for
bit vectors from 8 to something wider(32? natural host machine
width?)
