Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 2fed21d25b disas/libvixl: Protect C system header for C++ compiler
When selecting an ARM target on Debian unstable, we get:

Partially cherry-pick vixl commit 78973f258039f6e96 [*]:

  Refactor VIXL to use `extern` block when including C header
  that do not have a C++ counterpart.

which is similar to commit 875df03b22 ('osdep: protect qemu/osdep.h
with extern "C"').

README

The code in this directory is a subset of libvixl:
 https://github.com/armvixl/vixl
(specifically, it is the set of files needed for disassembly only,
taken from libvixl 1.12).
Bugfixes should preferably be sent upstream initially.

The disassembler does not currently support the entire A64 instruction
set. Notably:
 * Limited support for system instructions.
 * A few miscellaneous integer and floating point instructions are missing.
