…tructions assembled via LLVM - SE-145

Given that the SimEng test suite also has a very similar function, would it be worth creating this function once to suit both use cases? |

This PR adds a new constructor to CoreInstance (
CoreInstance::CoreInstance(std::string instructions, std::string configPath)). This constructor is only available after specifying the flag-DSIMENG_ENABLE_TESTS=ON. Calling this constructor with a string of instructions and a config path will assemble the string of instructions via LLVM and construct the process image with the assembled source. SimEng is then able to execute these assembled instructions. This constructor is not exposed tomain.ccso this functionality is not accessible through the compiled SimEng executable.This feature will mainly be used for testing SST. Instructions supplied via
TEST_GROUP(s)will be assembled via this constructor and executed.
