Alessandro Di Federico 82260c2693 Make dumping assembly and PTC optional
Output files can become *very* large.

This commit disables by default dumping disassembled instructions and
PTC code into the IR.

Alessandro Di Federico d10178483d Introduce the new MetaAddress
Unlike the previous iteration of `MetaAddress`, which tried to stuff all
the parts of `MetaAddress` within the existing `PC` CSV, this
implementation adds a set of new CSVs (or marks some existing ones as) to
represent the four portions of the current PC's `MetaAddress`.

* Introduce `ProgramCounterHandler`: a class responsible to maintain the
  PC-related CSVs. This class is also used to manipulate the new
  dispatcher.
* `AdvancedValueInfo`: update for new MetaAddress.
* External jump handler: do not clobber registers.
  When introducing support for dynamic binaries, we didn't realize that
  in x86-64 we were clobbering `r11`. To avoid this, we have to jump to
  an address stored in memory. However, due to the new `MetaAddress`,
  obtaining a *jumpable* address from the PC-related CSVs might require
  some computations (and it does in ARM). Therefore, we introduce a new
  global variable, `jumpablepc`, whose only role is to contain the
  jumpable version of the program counter and then be the target of the
  memory-indirect jump instruction.
* Labels care only about absolute addresses.
* CSAA: mark call site, even if no accesses.

Alessandro Di Federico dc48188f37 Introduce MetaAddress
`MetaAddress` replaces all the `uint64_t` used to represent a virtual
address. Its main features are:

* It has a non-zero representation of invalid addresses.
* It supports tags to represent code that has different interpretations but
  resides at the same address in memory (namely ARM vs Thumb).
* Arithmetic operations cannot overflow.
* It supports epochs, a way we intend to employ to handle self-modifying code
  (i.e., different code at the same address at different times).
* It supports "address spaces", which enable handling architectures with
  multiple address spaces.
* It fits in two 64-bit registers.

Alessandro Di Federico e21eed118c Tag function_call targeting external symbols
This commit uses SET, information about canonical values and labels to
detect if an indirect function call is targeting an external symbol.

The strings used for the name of external symbols are uniqued global
variables. This commit also uses this approach for the disassembly of
original instructions, which used to be metadata.
