[PATCH v6 48/54] tests/plugin: add a hotblocks plugin

["Alex Bennée" <alex.bennee@linaro.org>]

This is a simple plugin to track which translation blocks are call
most often. As we don't have a view of the internals of TCG we can
only work by the address of the start of the block so we also need to
tracks how often the address is translated.

As there will be multiple blocks starting at the same address. We can
try and work around this by futzing the value to feed to the hash with
the insn count.
