On M profile, return from exceptions happen when code in Handler mode
executes one of the following function call return instructions:
* POP or LDM which loads the PC
* LDR to PC
* BX register
and the new PC value is 0xFFxxxxxx.
QEMU tries to implement this by not treating the instruction
specially but then catching the attempt to execute from the magic
address value. This is not ideal, because:
* there are guest visible differences from the architecturally
specified behaviour (for instance jumping to 0xFFxxxxxx via a
different instruction should not cause an exception return but it
will in the QEMU implementation)
* we have to account for it in various places (like refusing to take
an interrupt if the PC is at a magic value, and making sure that
the MPU doesn't deny execution at the magic value addresses)
Drop these hacks, and instead implement exception return the way the
architecture specifies -- by having the relevant instructions check
for the magic value and raise the 'do an exception return' QEMU
internal exception immediately.
The effect on the generated code is minor:

which is a difference of one cmp/branch-not-taken. This will
be lost in the noise of having to exit generated code and
look up the next TB anyway.

For M profile exception-return handling we'd like to generate different
code for some instructions depending on whether we are in Handler
mode or Thread mode. This isn't the same as "are we privileged
or user", so we need an extra bit in the TB flags to distinguish.

Add support for generating the ISS (Instruction Specific Syndrome)
for Data Abort exceptions taken from AArch32. These syndromes are
used by hypervisors for example to trap and emulate memory accesses.
This is the equivalent for AArch32 guests of the work done for AArch64
guests in commit aaa1f954d4.

We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
