x86/insn-eval: Add utility functions to get segment descriptor base address and limit
With segmentation, the base address of the segment is needed to compute a linear address. This base address is obtained from the applicable segment descriptor. Such segment descriptor is referenced from a segment selector. These new functions obtain the segment base and limit of the segment selector indicated by segment register index given as argument. This index is any of the INAT_SEG_REG_* family of #define's. The logic to obtain the segment selector is wrapped in the function get_segment_selector() with the inputs described above. Once the selector is known, the base address is determined. In protected mode, the selector is used to obtain the segment descriptor and then its base address. In long mode, the segment base address is zero except when FS or GS are used. In virtual-8086 mode, the base address is computed as the value of the segment selector shifted 4 positions to the left. In protected mode, segment limits are enforced. Thus, a function to determine the limit of the segment is added. Segment limits are not enforced in long or virtual-8086. For the latter, addresses are limited to 20 bits; address size will be handled when computing the linear address.
