Initial support for disassembling Thumb2 code.  This works only for
Cortex-M3 cores so far.  Eventually other cores will also need Thumb2
support ... but they don't yet support any kind of disassembly.

 - Update the 16-bit Thumb decoder:
 
     * Understand CPS, REV*, SETEND, {U,S}XT{B,H} opcodes added
       by ARMv6.  (It already seems to treat CPY as MOV.)

     * Understand CB, CBNZ, WFI, IT, and other opcodes added by
       in Thumb2.

 - A new Thumb2 instruction decode routine is provided.
 
     * This has a different signature:  pass the target, not the
       instruction, so it can fetch a second halfword when needed.  
       The instruction size is likewise returned to the caller.

     * 32-bit instructions are recognized but not yet decoded.
   
 - Start using the current "UAL" syntax in some cases.  "SWI" is
   renamed as "SVC"; "LDMIA" as "LDM"; "STMIA" as "STM".

 - Define a new "cortex_m3 disassemble addr count" command to give
   access to this disassembly.

Sanity checked against "objdump -d" output; a bunch of the new
instructions checked out fine.
