target-mips: Add abs2008 flavor of <ABS|NEG>.<S|D>

Updated handling of instructions <ABS|NEG>.<S|D>. Note that legacy
(pre-abs2008) ABS and NEG instructions are arithmetic (and, therefore,
any NaN operand causes signaling invalid operation), while abs2008
ones are non-arithmetic, always and only changing the sign bit, even
for NaN-like operands. Details on these instructions are documented
in [1] p. 35 and 359.

Implementation-wise, abs2008 versions are implemented without helpers,
for simplicity and performance sake.
