[Qemu-devel] [RFC 1/2] icount: Print instruction count on exit

[Christopher Covington]

When -icount shift=n is in use, print the instruction count when
finished. In conjunction with the `time` command, this can be used to
calculate how many instructions per second QEMU TCG can translate and
execute. The output can also be used to double-check future facilities
such as exposing the instruction count to guest/target software
through interfaces such as an emulated Performance Monitors Unit.
