target-sparc: fix ldstub sign-extension bug

ldstub [addr], reg incorrectly reads a signed byte from memory which causes
problems in the 32-bit Solaris mutex code. Here the byte value being read is
0xff which is incorrectly sign-extended to 0xffffffff before being written back
to the target register causing lock detection to behave incorrectly.

This fixes the intermittent hangs and MUTEX_HELD warnings issued to the
console when running 32-bit Solaris images under qemu-system-sparc.

With thanks to Joseph Dery for providing a condensed test image to consistently
reproduce the problem on demand, and Martin Husemann for allowing me access to
real hardware for comparison.
