Class detached_regcache

jit.c uses the regcache in a slightly different way, the regcache dosen't
write through to target, but it has read and write methods.  If I apply
regcache in record-full.c, it has the similar use pattern.  This patch
adds a new class detached_regcache, a register buffer, but can be
read and written.

Since jit.c doesn't want to write registers through to target, it uses
regcache as a readonly regcache (because only readonly regcache
disconnects from the target), but it adds a hole in regcache
(raw_set_cached_value) in order to modify a readonly regcache.  This patch
fixes this hole completely.

regcache inherits detached_regcache, and detached_regcache inherits
readable_regcache.  The ideal design is that both detached_regcache and
readable_regcache inherit reg_buffer, and regcache inherit
detached_regcache and regcache_read (virtual inheritance).  I concern
about the performance overhead of virtual inheritance, so I don't do it in
the patch.
