target/arm: Implement FEAT_HBC

Browse Source 
FEAT_HBC (Hinted conditional branches) provides a new instruction
BC.cond, which behaves exactly like the existing B.cond except
that it provides a hint to the branch predictor about the
likely behaviour of the branch.

Since QEMU does not implement branch prediction, we can treat
this identically to B.cond.
