Make various functions static, add some comments, report
vector catch as a flavor of DBG_REASON_BREAKPOINT, get
rid of needless/undesirable ARMV4_5_CORE_REG_MODE, etc.

Start using the arm_reg_current() call. This shrinks and speeds
the affected code. It can also prevent some coredumps coming from
invalid CPSR values ... the ARMV4_5_CORE_REG_MODE() macro returns
bogus registers if e.g. "Secure Monitor" mode isn't supported by
the current CPU.

Have arm_set_cpsr() handle the two core state flags, updating
the CPU state. This eliminates code in various debug_entry()
paths, and marginally improves handling of the J bit.
Catch and comment a few holes in the handling of the J bit on
ARM926ejs cores ... it's unlikely our users will care about
Jazelle mode, but we can at least warn of Impending Doom. If
anyone does use it, these breadcrumbs may help them to find
the right path through the code.

Define arm_reg_current() ... returning handle to a given register,
and encapsulating the current mode's register shadowing. It's got
one current use, for reporting the current register set to GDB.
This will let later patches clean up much ARMV4_5_CORE_REG_MODE()
nastiness, saving a bit of code.
Define and use arm_set_cpsr() ... initially it updates the cached
CPSR and sets up state used by arm_reg_current(), plus any SPSR
handle. (Later: can also set up for T and J bits.)

Stash a pointer to the CPSR in the "struct arm", to help get rid
of the (common) references to its index in the register cache.
This removes almost all references to CPSR offsets outside of the
toplevel ARM code ... except a pair related to the current ARM11
"simulator" logic (which should be removable soonish).
This is a net minor code shrink of a few hundred bytes of object
code, and also makes the code more readable.

Implementations need to access the register struct they modify;
make it easier and less error-prone to identify the instance.
(This removes over 10% of the ARMV4_5_CORE_REG_MODE nastiness...)
Plus some minor fixes noted when making these updates: ARM7/ARM9
accessor methods should be static; don't leave CPSR wrongly marked
"dirty"; note significant XScale omissions in register handling;
and have armv4_5_build_reg_cache() record its result.
Rename "struct armv4_5_core_reg" as "struct arm_reg"; it's used
for more than those older architecture generations.

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.

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.)

When we read the CPSR on debug entry, update the CPSR cache in all
cases, not just when the current processor state is User or System.
Plus minor cleanup of how the (too-many) other registers' cache
entries get updated.

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.
Related: make the two register access methods properly static,
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.

It's used to flag cores with the "TrustZone" extension,
and is used in subsequent patches to set up support for
the registers shadowed by its new secure monitor mode.
The ARM1176 and Cortex-A8 both support this new mode.

Same deal: "register.h" got needlessly included all over the
place because of being in a few widely included headers.
So take it out of the header files which included it, and put
it in files which use it ... reduce needless interdependencies.
Also, don't need that extra "types.h" inclusion.

Most files in the tree seem to have ended up including this,
and *quite* needlessly ... only code implementing or using
breakpoints actually needs these declarations.

The arm7_9_checksum_memory() and arm7_9_blank_check_memory()
routines are not actually specific to the ARM7 and ARM9 core
generations ... they can work for any core which can run
algorithms using basic ARM (not Thumb) instructions.
Rename them; move the declarations to a more generic site;
likewise move the code (and tidy it a bit in the process).
NOTE: the blank_check() method falsely returned a success
status (0) on one error path, when the algorithm failed.
Fixed this bug.

Previously this flag was stored in "target_type", so that for example
if there were two ARM7TDMI targets in a scan chain, both would claim
to have been examined although only the first one actually had its
examine() method called.
Move this state to where it should have been in the first place, and
hide a method that didn't need exposure ... the flag is write-once.
Provide some doxygen. The examine() method is confusing, since it
isn't separating one-time setup from the after-each-reset stuff. And
the ARM7/ARM9 version is, somewhat undesirably, not leaving the debug
state alone after reset ... probably more of an issue for trace setup
than for watchpoints and breakpoints.

The quit entry point was not being invoked. Just a source
of confusion at this point. XScale ran 100x reset upon
quit, but that code made no sense, wasn't commented
and never invoke.
