ARM: Rework how unrecognized/unimplemented instructions are handled.
Instead of panic immediately when these instructions are executed, an UndefinedInstruction fault is returned. In FS mode (not currently implemented), this is the fault that should, to my knowledge, be triggered in these situations and should be handled using the normal architected mechanisms. In SE mode, the fault causes a panic when it's invoked that gives the same information as the instruction did. When/if support for speculative execution of ARM is supported, this will allow a mispeculated and unrecognized and/or unimplemented instruction from causing a panic. Only once the instruction is going to be committed will the fault be invoked, triggering the panic.
