Add unit test to gdbarch methods register_to_value and value_to_register
This patch adds one unit test for gdbarch methods register_to_value and
value_to_register. The test pass different combinations of {regnu, type}
to gdbarch_register_to_value and gdbarch_value_to_register. In order
to do the test, add a new function create_new_frame to create a fake
frame. It can be improved after we converted frame_info to class.
In order to isolate regcache (from target_ops operations on writing
registers, like target_store_registers), the sub-class of regcache in the
test override raw_write. Also, in order to get the right regcache from
get_thread_arch_aspace_regcache, the sub-class of regcache inserts itself
to current_regcache.
