target-mips: fix single-stepping
Single-stepping branches on MIPS didn't work right, because the
generation of EXCP_DEBUG happened after the generation of the code to
exit the current TB. That is, given the code:
bne v0,v1,target
nop
...
target:
addu v0,v0,v1
1:
when you single-stepped through the NOP, execution wouldn't actually
halt until you reached the label `1'.
This patch corrects that and also changes single-stepping so that a
branch and its delay slot are executed as one instruction for the
purposes of single-stepping. This behavior is comparable to what other
MIPS tools (e.g. MIPSsim with MDI) do. GDB avoids placing breakpoints
in branch delay slots, so this change doesn't break anything on the GDB
side.
