<libkern/OSCacheControl.h> describes sys_icache_invalidate() as
"equivalent to sys_cache_control(kCacheFunctionPrepareForExecution)",
having kCacheFunctionPrepareForExecution defined as:
/* Prepare memory for execution. This should be called
* after writing machine instructions to memory, before
* executing them. It syncs the dcache and icache. [...]
*/
Since the dcache is also sync'd, we can avoid the sys_dcache_flush()
call when both rx/rw pointers are equal.

ctr_el0 access is privileged on this platform and fails as an illegal
instruction.
Windows does not offer a way to flush data cache from userspace, and
only FlushInstructionCache is available in Windows API.
The generic implementation of flush_idcache_range uses,
__builtin___clear_cache, which already use the FlushInstructionCache
function. So we rely on that.

When compiling qemu-fuzz-i386 on aarch64 host, clang reported the following
error:
../util/cacheflush.c:38:44: error: value size does not match register size
specified by the constraint and modifier [-Werror,-Wasm-operand-widths]
asm volatile("mrs\t%0, ctr_el0" : "=r"(save_ctr_el0));

Modify the type of save_ctr_el0 to uint64_t to fix it.

For darwin, the CTR_EL0 register is not accessible, but there
are system routines that we can use.
For other hosts, copy the single pointer implementation from
libgcc and modify it to support the double pointer interface
we require. This halves the number of cache operations required
when split-rwx is enabled.

We are shortly going to have a split rw/rx jit buffer. Depending
on the host, we need to flush the dcache at the rw data pointer and
flush the icache at the rx code pointer.
For now, the two passed pointers are identical, so there is no
effective change in behaviour.
