Since we've already stepped away from ENABLE is a JMP and DISABLE is a
NOP with the branch_default bits, and are going to make it even worse,
rename it to make it all clearer.
This way we don't mix multiple levels of logic attributes, but have a
plain 'physical' name for what the current instruction patching status
of a jump label is.
This is a first step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:

Implement the microMIPS encoding of the J instruction for the purpose of
the static keys feature, fixing a crash early on in bootstrap as the
kernel is unhappy seeing the ISA bit set in jump table entries. Make
sure the ISA bit correctly reflects the instruction encoding chosen for
the kernel, 0 for the standard MIPS and 1 for the microMIPS encoding.
Also make sure the instruction to patch is a 32-bit NOP in the microMIPS
mode as by default the 16-bit short encoding is assumed

Correct the check for the span of the 256MB segment addressable by the J
instruction according to this instruction's semantics. The calculation
of the jump target is applied to the address of the delay-slot
instruction that immediately follows. Adjust the check accordingly by
adding 4 to `e->code' that holds the address of the J instruction
itself.

In order not to be left behind, we add jump label support for MIPS.
Tested on 64-bit big endian (Octeon), and 32-bit little endian
(malta/qemu).
