[S390] Convert machine feature detection code to C.
From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com>
From: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com>

This lets us use defines for the magic bits in machine flags instead
of using plain numbers all over the place.
In addition on newer machines features/facilities are indicated by the
result of the stfl instruction. So we use these bits instead of trying
to execute new instructions and check wether we get an exception or
not.
Also the mvpg instruction is always available when in zArch mode,
whereas the idte instruction is only available in zArch mode. This
results in some minor optimizations.
