[PATCH 17/18] dbtr: Heterogeneous access type matching for mcontrol triggers

The Tenstorrent Ascalon core has a set of mcontrol6 triggers which can
match load/store, and a set which can match execute.
Detect access types supported in mc/mc6 triggers by writing 1 to
load/store/access fields and reading back the result. Unsupported bits
read back 0.
Account for this capability when allocating HW triggers.
