Subject: x86: Add helper functions to access rflags

The rflags register is spread across several different registers. Most
of the flags are stored in MISCREG_RFLAGS, but some are stored in
microcode registers. When accessing RFLAGS, we need to reconstruct it
from these registers. This changeset adds two functions,
X86ISA::getRFlags() and X86ISA::setRFlags(), that take care of this
magic.
