mips: change in restoring debug working register

In current devel code there are 3 functions (related to m4k code) that need to restore register 8 from pracc stack:
mips32_pracc_read_u32()
mips32_cp0_read()
mips32_pracc_write_mem_generic()

And mips32_pracc_read_mem() needs to restore regs 8 and 9 from pracc stack.

Values in this registers should be the same as read by mips32_pracc_read_regs() when entering debug
mode and can be modified by mips32_pracc_write_regs() when leaving debug mode.
There is no need to read their values from the processor registers every time.

The fields reg8 and reg9 are added to struct mips_ejtag to store these register values
and the call to mips32_save_context() is shifted in mips_m4k_debug_entry() in order
to store them before any other function needs to restore these registers.
For the same reason in function mips_m4k_step() the call to mips_m4k_set_breakpoint(), if needed,
should be made after calling mips_m4k_debug_entry().
For single word write the number of pracc accesses are now 9 or 8, from 13 or 12 in current code,
single word read takes now 10 instead of 12.

This patch is really the first in a set of patches for an alternate m4k pracc code
much faster that current code. At least for me with pic32mx works fine.
