[PATCH v2 7/8] Hexagon (target/hexagon) Use direct block chaining for direct jump/branch

[Taylor Simpson <tsimpson@quicinc.com>]

Direct block chaining is documented here
https://qemu.readthedocs.io/en/latest/devel/tcg.html#direct-block-chaining

Recall that Hexagon allows packets with multiple jumps where only the first
one with a true predicate will actually jump.  So, we can only use direct
block chaining when the packet contains a single PC-relative jump.  We add
the following to DisasContext in order to perform direct block chaining at
the end of packet commit (in gen_end_tb)
    has_single_direct_branch
        Indicates that we can use direct block chaining
    branch_cond
        The condition under which the branch is taken
    branch_dest
        The destination of the branch
