replay: introduce breakpoint at the specified step
This patch introduces replay_break, replay_delete_break qmp and hmp commands. These commands allow stopping at the specified instruction. It may be useful for debugging when there are some known events that should be investigated. replay_break command has one argument - number of instructions executed since the start of the replay. replay_delete_break removes previously set breakpoint.

+# @replay-break:
+#
+# Set replay breakpoint at instruction count @icount.
+# Execution stops when the specified instruction is reached.
+# There can be at most one breakpoint. When breakpoint is set, any prior
+# one is removed. The breakpoint may be set only in replay mode and only
+# "in the future", i.e. at instruction counts greater than the current one.
+# The current instruction count can be observed with @query-replay.
