arch-arm: fix GDB stub after SVE

The SVE patches made registers longer by increasing NumVecElemPerVecReg,
but the GDB XML was not updated to account for that, and as a result GDB
connections were failing with:

Remote 'g' packet reply is too long

This commit introduces NumVecElemPerSimdVecReg which counts only the SIMD
register sizes to get it back working. SVE GDB support is not added here.

arch-arm,cpu: Add initial support for Arm SVE

This changeset adds initial support for the Arm Scalable Vector Extension
(SVE) by implementing:
- support for most data-processing instructions (no loads/stores yet);
- basic system-level support.

cpu: Added interface for vector reg file

This patch adds some more functionality to the cpu model and the arch to
interface with the vector register file.

This change consists mainly of augmenting ThreadContexts and ExecContexts
with calls to get/set full vectors, underlying microarchitectural elements
or lanes. Those are meant to interface with the vector register file. All
classes that implement this interface also get an appropriate implementation.

This requires implementing the vector register file for the different
models using the VecRegContainer class.

This change set also updates the Result abstraction to contemplate the
possibility of having a vector as result.

The changes also affect how the remote_gdb connection works.

There are some (nasty) side effects, such as the need to define dummy
numPhysVecRegs parameter values for architectures that do not implement
vector extensions.

Nathanael Premillieu's work with an increasing number of fixes and
improvements of mine.

arch, cpu: Architectural Register structural indexing

Replace the unified register mapping with a structure associating
a class and an index. It is now much easier to know which class of
register the index is referring to. Also, when adding a new class
there is no need to modify existing ones.

cpu: implements vector registers

This adds a vector register type. The type is defined as a std::array of a
fixed number of uint64_ts. The isa_parser.py has been modified to parse vector
register operands and generate the required code. Different cpus have vector
register files now.

arm: Add support for ARMv8 (AArch64 & AArch32)

Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64
kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed
in a later patch.

Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed
in a later patch.
