We can only request a list of registers once the vCPU has been
initialised so the user needs to use either call the get function on
vCPU initialisation or during the translation phase.

We don't expose the reg number to the plugin instead hiding it behind
an opaque handle. For now this is just the gdb_regnum encapsulated in
an anonymous GPOINTER but in future as we add more state for plugins
to track we can expand it.

v4
  - the get/read_registers functions are now implicitly for current
  vCPU only to accidental cpu != current_cpu uses.
v5
  - make reg_handles as per-CPUPluginState variable.
v6
  - for now just wrap gdb_regnum
v7
  - minor style fixes

Qualify with QEMU_PLUGIN_API, which was apparently added after this 
patch was authored.

Add a period after -1.
