These unimplemented opcodes are handled like illegal opcodes, but
they are used in existing code. We should at least report when they
are executed.

When running a QEMU system emulation of an ARM system
(Raspberry PI), Linux booted, but when I tried to run a
user session, it terminated without error message.
It took me some time to see that bash got an illegal
instruction exception. It was caused by ARM opcode 'setend'
which is not implemented in QEMU's ARM emulation.
The patch should help detecting similar scenarios in
the future.
Raspberry PI uses 'setend' in an optimized version of
memcmp, so lots of other executables also fail with QEMU.
As a workaround, the preloading of that optimized code
can be removed. Of course an improved QEMU emulation
would be better.
