KVM: x86 emulator: Add DstAcc operand type
Add DstAcc operand type. That means that there are 4 bits now for
DstMask.
"In the good old days cpus would have only one register that was able to
fully participate in arithmetic operations, typically called A for
Accumulator. The x86 retains this tradition by having special, shorter
encodings for the A register (like the cmp opcode), and even some
instructions that only operate on A (like mul).
SrcAcc and DstAcc would accommodate these instructions by decoding A
into the corresponding 'struct operand'."
