Hah.  In the process of doing that, I notice that
cpu_watchpoint_address_matches actually does what I want.

I have added documentation for cpu_check_watchpoint and
cpu_watchpoint_address_matches and have dropped this new function.

In both cases we need to interrupt the execution in order to actually honor the
watchpoint.  So yes, treating them the same seems the only reasonable way.
