The commit also fixes some init.cc issues with initialization of SYSCALL/SYSRET MSR in AMD hosts and also includes code reorg.

instructions support can be enabled using .bochsrc CPUID option.

A lot of changes but everything is really trivial.
...
Make save/restore default feature, the configure option for save/restore removed from configure script and save/restore made available forever. All code now assume it is exists. Bochs save/restore tree previosly called "save_restore" renamed to "bochs" tree and it will be havily used everywhere, starting from save/restore and ending by various bochs debugger functions. I am going to rework debugger code to get rid of debug CPU access functions and use this "bochs" param tree instead
