[PATCH v2 0/20] Convert nanoMIPS disassembler from C++ to C

[Milica Lazarevic]

Hi,

This patchset converts the nanomips disassembler to plain C. C++ features
like class, std::string type, exception handling, and function overloading
have been removed and replaced with the equivalent C code. 

===============================
Changes since previous version:
    (1) disas/nanomips: Remove namespace img
      Removed comments that refer to the deleted function.
    (3) disas/nanomips: Delete NMD class fields
      Class fields were introduced as global variables in the previous version.
      Since it wasn't a thread-safe solution, in this version, one class field
      (m_requested_instruction_categories) has been replaced with the only 
value 
      it can have, while the other class field has been added as a parameter 
      where needed.
    (4) disas/nanomips: Remove helper methods from class
      Squashed patch #19 here.
    (5) disas/nanomips: Remove __cond methods from class
      Addressed the coding style issues.
    (6) disas/nanomips: Remove disasm methods from class
      Addressed the coding style issues.
    (12) disas/nanomips: Replace std::string type
      Changed the return types to char * when a function returns allocated 
memory.
      Switched to using some glib functions for memory allocation like g_malloc,
      g_strdup_vprintf, and g_strdup_printf instead of strdup.
    (13) disas/nanomips: Prevent memory leaking
      Used the g_autofree attribute for dynamically allocated strings, instead 
of
      calling free(). Now, this patch is much smaller than in the previous 
version.
    (14) disas/nanomips: Introduce Dis_info struct
      Same as in (3). Instead of using global variables, all the necessary 
information
      are packed into the struct and added as an argument wherever needed.

Regards, 
Milica
