[PATCH v8 18/30] powerpc/xmon: Use a function for reading instructions

Currently in xmon, mread() is used for reading instructions. In
preparation for prefixed instructions, create and use a new function,
mread_instr(), especially for reading instructions.

v5: New to series, seperated from "Add prefixed instructions to
    instruction data type"
v6: mread_instr(): correctly return error status
v8: style
