Outline places for future MSA helpers to follow the same organization
as in MSA tests.
Backports commit 7471df9f9eaca7c4495d77265864d56644a08b23 from qemu
The old version of the helper for the INSERT.<B|H|W|D> MSA instructions
has been replaced with four helpers that don't use switch, and change
the endianness of the given index, when executed on a big endian host.
Backports commit c1c9a10fb1f7a6782711817c167a2c20b000fc12 from qemu
The old version of the helper for the COPY_U.<B|H|W> MSA instructions
has been replaced with four helpers that don't use switch, and change
the endianness of the given index, when executed on a big endian host.
Backports commit 41d288582782cf8d63241ecb6efa1e4160fe78f7 from qemu
The old version of the helper for the COPY_S.<B|H|W|D> MSA instructions
has been replaced with four helpers that don't use switch, and change
the endianness of the given index, when executed on a big endian host.
Backports commit 631c467461496dcf6d6a3e4c3d27a1433e96868e from qemu
MSA instructions MOD_<U|S>.<B|H|W|D> when dividing by zero,
didn't return the same value when executed on a referent hardware
(FPGA MIPS 64 r6, little endian) and when executed on QEMU, which
is not a real bug, because the result when dividing by zero is
UNPREDICTABLE [1] (page 255, 256).

It is more typical to provide the ';' by the caller of a macro
than to embed it in the macro itself; this is because syntax
highlight engines can get confused if a macro is called without
a semicolon before the closing '}'.
Backports commit 94f5c480e9b5ce95394026b3f025816470e23eaf from qemu
no logical change, only code movement (and fix a comment typo).
Backports commit 26aa3d9aecbb6fe9bce808a1d127191bdf3cc3d2 from qemu
Also backports commit 5502b66fc7d0bebd08b9b7017cb7e8b5261c3a2d
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.
