Keep a handle to the PC in "struct arm", and use it.
This register is used a fair amount, so this is a net
minor code shrink (other than some line length fixes),
but mostly it's to make things more readable.
For XScale, fix a dodgy sequence while stepping. It
was initializing a variable to a non-NULL value, then
updating it to handle the step-over-active-breakpoint
case, and then later testing for non-NULL to see if
it should reverse that step-over-active logic. It
should have done like ARM7/ARM9 does: init to NULL.

Generalize the core of watchpoint setup so that it can handle
breakpoints too. Create breakpoint add/remove routines which
will use that, and hook them up to target types which don't
provide their own breakpoint support (nothing, yet).
This suffices for hardware-only breakpoint support. The ARM11
code will be able to switch over to this without much trouble,
since it doesn't yet handle software breakpoints. Switching
Cortex-A8 will be a bit more involved.

The term "DPM" is probably not well known ("Device Power Management"?),
so identify its source in the current ARM architecture specification.
It's relevant to ARMv6, ARMv7-A, and ARMv7-R ... but not "M" profiles.

Until we manage breakpoints at runtime (patches not ready for 0.4)
the only way this code should touch them is to disable them at server
startup (a previous debug session may have left them active).

Abstract the DPM breakpoint and watchpoint data structures to
have a shared core for housekeeping.
Abstract the code updating the watchpoint registers so that it
can be used to update breakpoint registers. Then do so, when
something has set up the breakpoint state used by this code.

Move most declarations in <target/armv4_5.h> to <target/arm.h>
and update users.
What's left in the older file is stuff that I think should be
removed ... the old register cache access stuff, which makes it
awkward to support microcontroller profile (Cortex-M) cores.
The armv4_5_run_algorithm() declaration was moved too, even
though it's not yet as generic as it probably ought to be.

Move the ARM opcode macros from <target/armv4_5.h>, and a few
Thumb2 ones from <target/armv7m.h>, to more appropriate homes
in a new <target/arm_opcodes.h> file.
Removed duplicate opcodes from that v7m/Thumb2 set. Protected
a few macro argument references by adding missing parentheses.
Tightening up some of the line lengths turned up a curious artifact:
the macros for the Thumb opcodes are all 32 bits wide, not 16 bits.
There's currently no explanation for why it's done that way...

The low two bits are defined as should-be-zero-or-presereved.
We'll take the zero option, it's easier to enforce.

No point in both ARM11 and Cortex-A8 having private copies
of the logic sorting out e.g. DBG_REASON_WATCHPOINT.
Add and use a shared routine for this ... there's actually
a bunch more debug entry logic that could be shared, this
is just a start on that. Note that this routine fixes a
bug observed in the ARM11 code, where some abort mode quirks
were displayed as being an unknown debug reason; and also
silences needless ARM11 chatter.
Likewise with private copies of DSCR ... add one to the DPM
struct. Save it as part of setting DBG_REASON_* so later
patches can switch over to using that copy.

Changes from the flat namespace to heirarchical one. Instead of writing:
#include "jtag.h"
the following form should be used.
#include <jtag/jtag.h>
The exception is from .c files in the same directory.
Save and display the address of the instruction which triggered the
watchpoint. Because of pipelining, that's well behind the PC value
when debug entry completes. (Example in a subroutine that had been
returned from...)
Remove unused A8 stuff, mostly watchpoint hooks from the header.

This is a NOP unless the underlying core exposes two new methods, and
neither of the two cores using this (ARM11xx, Cortex-A8) do so yet.
This patch only updates those cores so they pass a flag saying whether
or not to update breakpoint and watchpoint status before resuming; and
removing some now-needless anti-segfault code from ARM11. Cortex-A8
didn't have that code ... yes, it segfaulted when setting watchpoints.
NOTE: this uses a slightly different strategy for setting/clearing
breakpoints than the ARM7/ARM9/etc code uses. It leaves them alone
unless it's *got* to change something, to speed halt/resume cycles
(including single stepping).
ALSO NOTE: this under-delivers for Cortex-A8, where regions with size
up to 2 GBytes can be watched ... it handles watchpoints which ARM11 can
also handle (size 1/2/4 bytes). Should get fixed later.

Instead of having separate ARM11 and Cortex-A8 implementations of
this code, have one shared implementation which just builds on the
existing "run instruction via R0" support.
This enables followup patches to remove that now-unused code from
those two drivers. (Patches to move the "mrc" and "mcr" code into
"struct arm" are due too ... MIPS and other cores do not support
those ARM-specific concepts.)

This implements the DPM interface for Cortex-A8 cores. It
also adds a synchronization operation to the DPM framework,
which is needed by the Cortex-A8 after CPSR writes.

First version of interface for sharing code between ARMv6 and ARMv7a
debug modules ... now the architecture includes debug support. (Not
the same as for the trimmed-down v7m or v6m though!) This is a first
version of an interface that will let the ARM11 and Cortex-A8 support
share code, features, and bugfixes. Based on existing code from both
of those cores.
The ARM v7-AR architecture specification calls this commonality the
"Debug Programmer's Model (DPM)", which seemed to be an appropriate
acronym -- a TLA even! -- for use in our code. Made it so. :)
The initial scope of this just supports register access, and is geared
towards supporting top level "struct arm" mechanisms. Later, things
like breakpoint and watchpoint support should be included.
