[PULL,23/32] target/riscv: fix instructions count handling in icount mode

Commit Message

From: Clément Léger <[e-mail]>

When icount is enabled, rather than returning the virtual CPU time, we
should return the instruction count itself. Add an instructions bool
parameter to get_ticks() to correctly return icount_get_raw() when
icount_enabled() == 1 and instruction count is queried. This will modify
the existing behavior which was returning an instructions count close to
the number of cycles (CPI ~= 1).
