This is identical for each target. So, move the initialization to
common code. Move the variable itself out of tcg_ctx and name it
cpu_env to minimize changes within targets.
This also means we can remove tcg_global_reg_new_{ptr,i32,i64},
since there are no longer global-register temps created by targets.

This enables parallel TCG code generation. However, we do not take
advantage of it yet since tb_lock is still held during tb_gen_code.
In user-mode we use a single TCG context; see the documentation
added to tcg_region_init for the rationale.
Note that targets do not need any conversion: targets initialize a
TCGContext (e.g. defining TCG globals), and after this initialization
has finished, the context is cloned by the vCPU threads, each of
them keeping a separate copy.
TCG threads claim one entry in tcg_ctxs[] by atomically increasing
n_tcg_ctxs. Do not be too annoyed by the subsequent atomic_read's
of that variable and tcg_ctxs; they are there just to play nice with
analysis tools such as thread sanitizer.
Note that we do not allocate an array of contexts (we allocate
an array of pointers instead) because when tcg_context_init
is called, we do not know yet how many contexts we'll use since
the bool behind qemu_tcg_mttcg_enabled() isn't set yet.
Previous patches folded some TCG globals into TCGContext. The non-const
globals remaining are only set at init time, i.e. before the TCG
threads are spawned. Here is a list of these set-at-init-time globals

This is groundwork for supporting multiple TCG contexts.
The naive solution here is to split code_gen_buffer statically
among the TCG threads; this however results in poor utilization
if translation needs are different across TCG threads.
What we do here is to add an extra layer of indirection, assigning
regions that act just like pages do in virtual memory allocation.
(BTW if you are wondering about the chosen naming, I did not want
to use blocks or pages because those are already heavily used in QEMU).
We use a global lock to serialize allocations as well as statistics
reporting (we now export the size of the used code_gen_buffer with
tcg_code_size()). Note that for the allocator we could just use
a counter and atomic_inc; however, that would complicate the gathering
of tcg_code_size()-like stats. So given that the region operations are
not a fast path, a lock seems the most reasonable choice.
The effectiveness of this approach is clear after seeing some numbers.
I used the bootup+shutdown of debian-arm with '-tb-size 80' as a benchmark.
Note that I'm evaluating this after enabling per-thread TCG (which
is done by a subsequent commit).

That is, 8 flushes.
* -smp 8, 32 regions (80/32 MB per region) [i.e. this patch]:

Again, 8 flushes. Note how buffer utilization is not 100%, but it
is close. Smaller region sizes would yield higher utilization,
but we want region allocation to be rare (it acquires a lock), so
we do not want to go too small.

This is groundwork for supporting multiple TCG contexts.
To avoid scalability issues when profiling info is enabled, this patch
makes the profiling info counters distributed via the following changes:
1) Consolidate profile info into its own struct, TCGProfile, which
TCGContext also includes. Note that tcg_table_op_count is brought
into TCGProfile after dropping the tcg_ prefix.
2) Iterate over the TCG contexts in the system to obtain the total counts.
This change also requires updating the accessors to TCGProfile fields to
use atomic_read/set whenever there may be conflicting accesses (as defined
in C11) to them.
