tcg/i386: use movbe instruction in qemu_ldst routines
The movbe instruction has been added on some Intel Atom CPUs and on recent Intel Haswell CPUs. It allows to load/store a value and at the same time bswap it. This patch detects the avaibility of this instruction and when available use it in the qemu load/store routines in replacement of load/store + bswap. Note that for 16-bit unsigned loads, movbe + movzw is basically the same as movzw + bswap, so the patch doesn't touch this case.
