Add I6500 core configuration. Note that this configuration is
supported only on best-effort basis due to the lack of certain
features in QEMU.

Disable R5900 support. There are some outstanding issues related
to ABI support and emulation accuracy, that were not understood
well during review process. Disable to avoid backward compatibility
issues.

Backports commit 823f2897bdd78185f3ba33292a25105ba8bad1b5 from qemu
The primary purpose of this change is to support programs compiled by
GCC for the R5900 target and thereby run R5900 Linux distributions, for
example Gentoo.
GCC in version 7.3, by itself, by inspection of the GCC source code
and inspection of the generated machine code, for the R5900 target,
only emits two instructions that are specific to the R5900: the three-
operand MULT and MULTU. GCC and libc also emit certain MIPS III
instructions that are not part of the R5900 ISA. They are normally
trapped and emulated by the Linux kernel, and therefore need to be
treated accordingly by QEMU.
A program compiled by GCC is taken to mean source code compiled by GCC
under the restrictions above. One can, with the apparent limitations,
with a bit of effort obtain a fully functioning operating system such
as R5900 Gentoo. Strictly speaking, programs need not be compiled by
GCC to make use of this change.
Instructions and other facilities of the R5900 not implemented by this
change are intended to signal provisional exceptions. One such example
is the FPU that is not compliant with IEEE 754-1985 in system mode. It
is therefore provisionally disabled. In user space the FPU is trapped
and emulated by IEEE 754-1985 compliant software in the kernel, and
this is handled accordingly by QEMU. Another example is the 93
multimedia instructions specific to the R5900 that generate provisional
reserved instruction exception signals.
One of the benefits of running a Linux distribution under QEMU is that
programs can be compiled with a native compiler, where the host and
target are the same, as opposed to a cross-compiler, where they are
not the same. This is especially important in cases where the target
hardware does not have the resources to run a native compiler.
Problems with cross-compilation are often related to host and target
differences in integer sizes, pointer sizes, endianness, machine code,
ABI, etc. Sometimes cross-compilation is not even supported by the
build script for a given package. One effective way to avoid those
problems is to replace the cross-compiler with a native compiler. This
change of compilation methods does not resolve the inherent problems
with cross-compilation.
The native compiler naturally replaces the cross-compiler, because one
typically uses one or the other, and preferably the native compiler
when the circumstances admit this. The native compiler is also a good
test case for the R5900 QEMU user mode. Additionally, Gentoo is well-
known for compiling and installing its packages from sources.
This change has been tested with Gentoo compiled for R5900, including
native compilation of several packages under QEMU.

Do following replacements:
ASE_DSPR2 -> ASE_DSP_R2
ASE_DSPR3 -> ASE_DSP_R3
MIPS_HFLAG_DSPR2 -> MIPS_HFLAG_DSP_R2
MIPS_HFLAG_DSPR3 -> MIPS_HFLAG_DSP_R3
check_dspr2() -> check_dsp_r2()
check_dspr3() -> check_dsp_r3()
and several other similar minor replacements.

Add infrastructure for availability control for DSP R3 ASE MIPS
instructions. Only BPOSGE32C currently belongs to DSP R3 ASE, but
this is likely to be changed in near future.

Register separate QOM types for each mips cpu model,
so it would be possible to reuse generic CPU creation
routines.
Backports commit 41da212c9ce9482fcfd490170c2611470254f8dc from qemu
Enable the CP0_EBase.WG (write gate) on the I6400 and MIPS64R2-generic
CPUs. This allows 64-bit guests to run KVM itself, which uses
CP0_EBase.WG to point CP0_EBase at XKPhys.
Backports commit bad63a8008a0aaefcd00542c89bee01623d7c9de from qemu
Add the Enhanced Virtual Addressing (EVA) feature to the P5600 core
configuration, along with the related Segmentation Control (SC) feature
and writable CP0_EBase.WG bit.
This allows it to run Malta EVA kernels.
Backports commit 574da58e4678b3c09048f268821295422d8cde6d from qemu
Add support for the CP0_EBase.WG bit, which allows upper bits to be
written (bits 31:30 on MIPS32, or bits 63:30 on MIPS64), along with the
CP0_Config5.CV bit to control whether the exception vector for Cache
Error exceptions is forced into KSeg1.
This is necessary on MIPS32 to support Segmentation Control and Enhanced
Virtual Addressing (EVA) extensions (where KSeg1 addresses may not
represent an unmapped uncached segment).
It is also useful on MIPS64 to allow the exception base to reside in
XKPhys, and possibly out of range of KSEG0 and KSEG1.
Backports commit 74dbf824a1313b6064bbebb981a7440951d70896 from qemu
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.
