This is improved type checking for the translators -- it's no longer
possible to accidentally swap arguments to the branch functions.
Note that the code generating backends still manipulate labels as int.
With notable exceptions, the scope of the change is just a few lines
for each target, so it's not worth building extra machinery to do this
change in per-target increments.

The previous setup required ops and args to be completely sequential,
and was error prone when it came to both iteration and optimization.

The value is not actually live across basic blocks, so there's no
need for the local property. This eliminates storing the temporary
to its home location at the branch.

The gen_icount_start/end functions are now somewhat misnamed since they
are useful for generic "start/end of TB" code, used for more than just
icount. Rename them to gen_tb_start/end.

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.
