helper_wfi() never returns to translated code: it either raises an
exception or exits the CPU loop after marking the CPU as halted. However,
trans_wfi() leaves the translation state as DISAS_NEXT, so instructions
following WFI can be included in the same TB.
With icount enabled, this makes the following instruction part of the TB's
instruction count when WFI exits, causing minstret to be incremented once
too many. Set DISAS_NORETURN after emitting the helper.
Add a TCG test for both reported cases: WFI waking for a locally enabled
pending interrupt with mstatus.MIE clear, and WFI taking a timer interrupt.
Fixes: 55c2a12cbcd3 ("RISC-V TCG Code Generation")

Changes in v2:
- Register test-minstret-wfi.S with the Meson TCG test framework so
check-tcg executes it.
