[PATCH v2 09/13] powerpc/xmon: Dump prefixed instructions

Currently when xmon is dumping instructions it reads a word at a time
and then prints that instruction (either as a hex number or by
disassembling it). For prefixed instructions it would be nice to show
its prefix and suffix as together. Use read_instr() so that if a prefix
is encountered its suffix is loaded too. Then print these in the form:
    prefix:suffix
Xmon uses the disassembly routines from GNU binutils. These currently do
not support prefixed instructions so we will not disassemble the
prefixed instructions yet.
