x86: Instruction decoder API

Add x86 instruction decoder to arch-specific libraries. This decoder
can decode x86 instructions used in kernel into prefix, opcode, modrm,
sib, displacement and immediates. This can also show the length of
instructions.

This version introduces instruction attributes for decoding
instructions.
The instruction attribute tables are generated from the opcode map file
(x86-opcode-map.txt) by the generator script(gen-insn-attr-x86.awk).

Currently, the opcode maps are based on opcode maps in Intel(R) 64 and
IA-32 Architectures Software Developers Manual Vol.2: Appendix.A,
and consist of below two types of opcode tables.

1-byte/2-bytes/3-bytes opcodes, which has 256 elements, are
written as below;

 Table: table-name
 Referrer: escaped-name
 opcode: mnemonic|GrpXXX [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...]
  (or)
 opcode: escape # escaped-name
 EndTable

Group opcodes, which has 8 elements, are written as below;

 GrpTable: GrpXXX
 reg:  mnemonic [operand1[,operand2...]] [(extra1)[,(extra2)...] [| 2nd-mnemonic ...]
 EndTable

These opcode maps include a few SSE and FP opcodes (for setup), because
those opcodes are used in the kernel.
