target/ppc: Enable reporting of SPRs to GDB
This allows reading and writing of SPRs via GDB:
(gdb) p/x $srr1
$1 = 0x8000000002803033
(gdb) p/x $pvr
$2 = 0x4b0201
(gdb) set $pvr=0x4b0000
(gdb) p/x $pvr
$3 = 0x4b0000
The `info` command can also be used:
(gdb) info registers spr
For this purpose, GDB needs to be provided with an XML description of
the registers (see the gdb-xml directory for examples) and a set of
callbacks for reading and writing the registers must be defined.
The XML file in this case is created dynamically, based on the SPRs
already defined in the machine. This way we avoid the need for several
XML files to suit each possible ppc machine.
The gdb_{get,set}_spr_reg callbacks take an index based on the order
the registers appear in the XML file. This index does not match the
actual location of the registers in the env->spr array so the
gdb_find_spr_idx function does that conversion.
Note: GDB currently needs to know the guest endianness in order to
properly print the registers values. This is done automatically by GDB
when provided with the ELF file or explicitly with the `set endian
<big|little>` command.
