3c8133f973 Rename cpu_physical_memory_write_rom() to address_space_write_rom()
The API of cpu_physical_memory_write_rom() is odd, because it
takes an AddressSpace, unlike all the other cpu_physical_memory_*
access functions. Rename it to address_space_write_rom(), and
bring its API into line with address_space_write().

afa4f6653d bswap: Add new stn_*_p() and ldn_*_p() memory access functions
There's a common pattern in QEMU where a function needs to perform
a data load or store of an N byte integer in a particular endianness.
At the moment this is handled by doing a switch() on the size and
calling the appropriate ld*_p or st*_p function for each size.

Provide a new family of functions ldn_*_p() and stn_*_p() which
take the size as an argument and do the switch() themselves.

b7ecba0f6f docs/devel/loads-stores.rst: Document our various load and store APIs
QEMU has a wide selection of different functions for doing
loads and stores; provide some overview documentation of
what they do and how to pick which one to use.
