Since we can catch exceptions like data aborts on read/write, it takes very
little to also catch exceptions in calls. When extending this with the catching
of illegal instructions, the call instruction now becomes much more robust and
also for address and instruction probing. Since we can catch several types of
exception, rename set_data_abort_jmp to set_exception_jmp. At the same time,
simplify the logic in read/write request handlers. Also fix a bug in ARM
jump code: it was using
stmia r1, {..., pc}
as if pc would get current pc + 8 but this is actually implementation defined
on older ARMs (typically pc + 12) and deprecated on newer ARMs, so rewrite the
code avoid that. The set_exception_jmp() function now also reports the exception
type.

The current code assumed that READ/WRITE would produce atomic read/writes for
8/16/32-bit words, which in turned put assumption on the memcpy function.
Since some memcpy implementation do not always guarantee such strong assumption,
introduce two new operation READ/WRITE_ATOMIC which provide the necessary
tools to do correct read and write to register in a single memory access.
