The semihosting API, at least for Arm, has a modeflags string so the
guest can say whether it wants to open O_BINARY or not:
https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/blob/main/semihosting/semihosting.rst#sys-open-0x01
So we need to plumb that down through the common semihosting code
into this function and set O_BINARY accordingly. Otherwise guest
code that asks for a text-mode file won't get one.
I don't know about other semihosting APIs, so those would need
to be checked to see what they should do.
