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

Changes list made after CVS service crash:
...
- Fixed critical bug in CPU code added with one of the prev commits
- Disasm support for SSE4
- Rename PNI->SSE3 everywhere in the code
- Correctly decode, disassemble and execute 'XCHG R8, rAX' x86-64 instruction
- Correctly decode, disassemble and execute multi-byte NOP 0F F1 opcode
- Fixed ENTER and LEAVE instructions in x86-64 mode
- Added ability to turn ON instruction trace, only GUI support is missed.
Instruction trace could be enabled if Bochs was compiled with disasm
- More changes Bit32u -> bx_phy_address
- Complete preliminary implementation of SMM in Bochs, SMI is still PANICs but if you press 'continue' everything should work OK
- Small code cleanup
- Update CHANGES and user docs
