[patch 0/3] Displaced stepping for 16-bit Thumb instructions

Displaced stepping doesn't work for Thumb instructions so far. This set
of patches are about support displaced stepping of 16-bit Thumb
instructions. There are much more 32-bit Thumb instructions than 16-bit
Thumb instructions, so it takes more time to support 32-bit Thumb
instructions. I'd like to send these three patches first to review.
Once these three are done, it is straight forward to support 32-bit
Thumb instructions.

Regression tested these three patches along with another pending patch
on armv7l-unknown-linux-gnueabi.

No regressions and some test failures are fixed.
