2020-05-19powerpc: Use a datatype for instructionsJordan Niethe
Currently unsigned ints are used to represent instructions on powerpc. This has worked well as instructions have always been 4 byte words. However, ISA v3.1 introduces some changes to instructions that mean this scheme will no longer work as well. This change is Prefixed Instructions. A prefixed instruction is made up of a word prefix followed by a word suffix to make an 8 byte double word instruction. No matter the endianness of the system the prefix always comes first. Prefixed instructions are only planned for powerpc64. Introduce a ppc_inst type to represent both prefixed and word instructions on powerpc64 while keeping it possible to exclusively have word instructions on powerpc32.

2020-05-19powerpc/xmon: Move breakpoints to text sectionJordan Niethe
The instructions for xmon's breakpoint are stored bpt_table[] which is in the data section. This is problematic as the data section may be marked as no execute. Move bpt_table[] to the text section.
