decodetree: Extend argument set syntax to allow types

Rather than force all structure members to be 'int',
allow the type of the member to be specified.

 Syntax::

 Each *args_elt* defines an argument within the argument set.
+If the form of the *args_elt* contains a colon, the first
+identifier is the argument name and the second identifier is
+the argument type.  If the colon is missing, the argument
+type will be ``int``.

 Each argument set will be rendered as a C structure "arg_$name"
 with each of the fields being one of the member arguments.
