ARM
+ - supports "reset-assert" event (except on Cortex-M3)
- renamed "armv4_5" command prefix as "arm"
- recognize TrustZone "Secure Monitor" mode
- "arm regs" command output changed
- register names use "sp" not "r13"
- add top-level "mcr" and "mrc" commands, replacing
various core-specific operations
