CSS code needs to tell the IO instruction handlers located in how should
the emulated instruction be ended. Currently this is done by returning
generic (POSIX) error codes, and mapping them to outcomes like condition
codes. This makes bugs easy to create and hard to recognise.
As a preparation for moving a way form (mis)using generic error codes for
flow control let us introduce a type which tells the instruction
handler function how to end the instruction, in a more straight-forward
and less ambiguous way.
