[PATCH v2 1/4] target/arm: Introduce PREDDESC field definitions

[Richard Henderson]

SVE predicate operations cannot use the "usual" simd_desc
encoding, because the lengths are not a multiple of 8.
But we were abusing the SIMD_* fields to store values anyway.
This abuse broke when SIMD_OPRSZ_BITS was modified in e2e7168a214.

Introduce a new set of field definitions for exclusive use
of predicates, so that it is obvious what kind of predicate
we are manipulating.  To be used in future patches.
