target/arm: Refactor M-profile VMSR/VMRS handling


Currently M-profile borrows the A-profile code for VMSR and VMRS
(access to the FP system registers), because all it needs to support
is the FPSCR.  In v8.1M things become significantly more complicated
in two ways:

 * there are several new FP system registers; some have side effects
   on read, and one (FPCXT_NS) needs to avoid the usual
   vfp_access_check() and the "only if FPU implemented" check

 * all sysregs are now accessible both by VMRS/VMSR (which
   reads/writes a general purpose register) and also by VLDR/VSTR
   (which reads/writes them directly to memory)

Refactor the structure of how we handle VMSR/VMRS to cope with this:

 * keep the M-profile code entirely separate from the A-profile code

 * abstract out the "read or write the general purpose register" part
   of the code into a loadfn or storefn function pointer, so we can
   reuse it for VLDR/VSTR.
