MIPS: XPA: Use XPA instructions in assembly
Utilise XPA instructions MFHC0 & MTHC0 in inline assembly instead of directly encoding them with the _ASM_INSN* macros, and transparently implement these instructions as assembler macros if the toolchain doesn't support them natively, using the recently introduced assembler macro helpers. The old direct encodings were restricted to using the register $at, so this allows the extra register moves to go away (saving a grand total of 24 bytes).
