A prefixed instruction is composed of a word prefix and a word suffix. It does not make sense to be able to have a breakpoint on the suffix of a prefixed instruction, so make this impossible. When leaving xmon_core() we check to see if we are currently at a breakpoint. If this is the case, the breakpoint needs to be proceeded from. Initially emulate_step() is tried, but if this fails then we need to execute the saved instruction out of line. The NIP is set to the address of bpt::instr[] for the current breakpoint. bpt::instr[] contains the instruction replaced by the breakpoint, followed by a trap instruction. After bpt::instr[0] is executed and we hit the trap we enter back into xmon_bpt(). We know that if we got here and the offset indicates we are at bpt::instr[1] then we have just executed out of line so we can put the NIP back to the instruction after the breakpoint location and continue on. Adding prefixed instructions complicates this as the bpt::instr[1] needs to be used to hold the suffix. To deal with this make bpt::instr[] big enough for three word instructions. bpt::instr[2] contains the trap, and in the case of word instructions pad bpt::instr[1] with a noop. No support for disassembling prefixed instructions.
