This change broke the usage of previously built versions of hsdis.  I filed a

8000489: older builds of hsdis don't work anymore after 6879063

Yumin, I assigned the bug to you.  Could you please take care of it?

Hi, all

   Can I have you code review of
   6879063: SA should use hsdis for disassembly

   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~minqi/6879063

   The SA has Java based disassemblers for x86 and sparc but amd64.  Instead of 
porting to amd64 we should switch over to using hsdis for it like the JVM does. 
 This requires a new entry point into hsdis, decode_instructions_virtual, which 
separates the address of the code being disassembled from the buffer containing 
the code.  The existing uses of decode_instructions have been updated to use 
the new interface and SA Disassembler has Java native methods that call into 
hsdis and call back up to Java to perform the disassembly. Also changed 
makefile for hsdis build for both(i386/amd64).

   All the old disassembler logic was deleted since it's incompatible with the 
new disassembly interface. Also deleted are dbx based SA interface and few 
other dead files.

   Tested by dumping full assembly from core files.
