SPR's CFAR, DEC, HDEC, TB-L/U are not implemented as part of CPUPPCState.
Hence, gdbstub is not able to access them using (CPUPPCState *)env->spr[] array.
Update gdb_get_spr_reg() method to handle these SPR's specifically.

Thanks for this, I have been annoyed by missing those regs when using
gdb at times :)

Could you move this to the of the block with other declarations?

I suppose we could store some time regs here too. (h)decr I have found
useful to change at times to interrupts when debugging Linux timer code.
TB could be similar.

We have a bit of weirdness with our timebase registers though, I'm going
to send out some patches for them. Maybe hold off changing this until
we agree on those.

I'll take this for next release, sorry didn't get to it earlier.

Thanks,
Nick

I had a minor comment but NBD for now.

Thanks,
