x86/insn-eval: Add function to get default params of code segment

Obtain the default values of the address and operand sizes as specified in
the D and L bits of the the segment descriptor selected by the register
CS. The function can be used for both protected and long modes.
For virtual-8086 mode, the default address and operand sizes are always 2
bytes.

The returned parameters are encoded in a signed 8-bit data type. Auxiliar
macros are provided to encode and decode such values.
