One set of tables for 128-bit and one set of tables for 256-bit.
This one took a bit longer since I needed to convert a few handlers over
to `Bind`. With this all of our x86 tables are costexpr so they end up
in RO mapped memory which is great.
This has the Frontend and OpcodeDispatcher select their operating mode
depending on the incoming code segment long-mode flag.
Adds some asserts since currently it is unexpected if the configuration
changes at runtime.
This is fairly straightforward for an initial setup but isn't fully
fleshed out.
Right now FEX's x86 tables aren't setup in a way to support choosing a
different instruction decoding depending on runtime operating mode
change, so that would break in interesting ways.
Primarily this just gets FEX setup to start piping the operating mode
through from the frontend to the backend. This is a long term task, so
it is going to take a long time to iron out all the issues.
Since CodePages is now a member of the guest to host map, which could
be replaced when JITing ARM code, any additions to it must be moved after that.
Additionally there is no benefit marking code pages for invalidation at all if
they are never added to the cache as in the single-step case.
This does technically prolong the window of an existing race where guest code
modifications could be missed, however this is unlikely to cause issues and didn't
prior.
Avoids an additional layer of indirection for callbacks. Passing them
around deep into instruction decoding logic doesn't provide much benefit
seeing as there will always be one frontend object per thread.
Buffers are tied to the lifetime of their owned flag, and as that
is a member of PoolBufferWithTimedRetirement we must always unclaim here.
Avoids the need to manually remember this quirk (which was forgot for the
temporary compilation buffer in JIT.cpp) at every use-site.
Telemetry value address generation was forcing an indirection at all
times which was unnecessary. These values live in the BSS, zero
initialized at process start and is unnecessary.
Instead change the wrapper defines to directly operate on the enum
passed in which saves an indirection on all of these telemetry
operations (except for the ones in the JIT which are required to be PIC
compliant).
This also fixes an annoying warning about
`FEXCORE_TELEMETRY_STATIC_INIT` causing initialization and destruction
order being unspecified, so two wins.
With the prior approach, backwards jumps into existing blocks would
explore the overlapping part rather than splitting the block, generating
needless code and wasting time decoding. Similarly, the current block
wouldn't be split when it is extended to overlap with a pending jump target.
Solve this by tracking blocks in a sorted vector and splitting existing blocks
on jumps when appropriate, in order to avoid any possibility of overlapping
blocks, which would break the lookup, misaligned and zero instruction blocks
are disallowed.
A source of overhead with multiblock is hitting instructions through a
conditional branch that can never be executed. Usually AVX512
instructions in glibc. This causes us to emit partial blocks for a ton
of targets that will never get executed.
Instead, when we have multiblock enabled, if a block hits an instruction
encoding we don't support, then remove all the decoded instructions from
the block and early terminate it if it isn't the entry block. This
resolves the issue of emitting a bunch of IR and code for blocks never
executed.
If the block of code has an invalid instruction in the entry block for
decoding then it'll still emit code up to the invalid instruction and
raise a SIGILL. This has the potential for generating some additional
blocks of code if a game is abusing SIGILL, but since that's unlikely
it's a good trade-off.
Also removes a few log instructions that don't really provide anything
anymore and just show up as confusing messages when multiblock is
enabled.
This is no longer necessary and it also no longer provides us any useful
information. Since we expose the AVX CPUID flag, basically everything
uses VEX encoding now, so it is basically always set.

There are some cases where we want to test multiple instructions where
we can do optimizations that would overwise be hard to see.
eg:
```asm
; Can be optimized to a single stp
push eax
push ebx
; Can remove half of the copy since we know the direction
cld
rep movsb
; Can remove a redundant insert
addss xmm0, xmm1
addss xmm0, xmm2
```
This lets us have arbitrary sized code in instruction count CI, with the
original json key becoming only a label if the instruction array is
provided.
There are still some major limitations to this, instructions that
generate side-effects might have "garbage" after the end of the block
that isn't correctly accounted for. So care must be taken.
Example in the json
```json
"push ax, bx": {
"ExpectedInstructionCount": 4,
"Optimal": "No",
"Comment": "0x50",
"x86Insts": [
"push ax",
"push bx"
],
"ExpectedArm64ASM": [
"uxth w20, w4",
"strh w20, [x8, #-2]!",
"uxth w20, w7",
"strh w20, [x8, #-2]!"
]
}
```
It is not an external component, and it makes paths needlessly long.
Ryan seemed amenable to this when we discussed on IRC earlier.
