Add support for branch instruction on armv7 with ptrace single step
Previous code supported only "continuous" code without any kind of branch instructions. To change that, new function was implemented which parses current instruction and returns an addres where the jump might happen (alternative addr). mdthread structure was extended to support two breakpoints (one directly below current instruction and the second placed at the alternative location). One of them must trigger regardless the instruction has or has not been executed due to condition field. Upon cleanup, both software breakpoints are removed.
This implementation parses only the most common instructions that are present in the code (like 99.99% of all), but there is a chance there are some left, not covered by the parsing routine. Parsing is done only for 32-bit instruction, no Thumb nor Thumb-2 support is provided.
