Fix some of the nasty TCG race conditions and crashes by implementing
cpu_exit() as setting a flag which is checked at the start of each TB.
This avoids crashes if a thread or signal handler calls cpu_exit()
while the execution thread is itself modifying the TB graph (which
may happen in system emulation mode as well as in linux-user mode
with a multithreaded guest binary).
This fixes the crashes seen in LP:668799; however there are another
class of crashes described in LP:1098729 which stem from the fact
that in linux-user with a multithreaded guest all threads will
use and modify the same global TCG date structures (including the
generated code buffer) without any kind of locking. This means that
multithreaded guest binaries are still in the "unsupported"
category.

Document tcg_qemu_tb_exec(). In particular, its return value is a
combination of a pointer to the next translation block and some
extra information in the low two bits. Provide some #defines for
the values passed in these bits to improve code clarity.
