target/arm: Support some Thumb insns being always unconditional

A few Thumb instructions are always unconditional even inside an
IT block (as opposed to being UNPREDICTABLE if used inside an
IT block): BKPT, the v8M SG instruction, and the A profile
HLT (debug halt) instruction.

This means we need to suppress the jump-over-instruction-on-condfail
code generation (though the IT state still advances as usual and
subsequent insns in the IT block may be conditional).
