Currently in riscv-isa-sim there's no way to make a custom extension
that adds new CSRs. This simple patch makes it possible via new
virtual function in extension_t class.

RISC-V ISA states (21.1):
"A standard-compatible global encoding can also use standard prefixes
for non-standard extensions if the associated standard extensions are
not included in the global encoding."
Currently all the instructions (either from standard or custom
extensions) are all being inserted into a single std::vector which is
then being sorted. An instruction matching process performs linear
search on that vector. The problem is that when a custom extension uses
the same opcode as standard one (i.e. match and mask are equal to the
standard counterparts) it is undefined which instruction will be picked.
That is because in std::sort "The order of equal elements is not
guaranteed to be preserved". That being said it is impossible to define
custom extension (via customext) that would use the prefix of a disabled
standard extension.
In this change I separate custom and standard extensions in two separate
std::vector's. By default we report an error if they have common
elements (There're an additional processor_t constructor's argument that
skips this check). If this error is disabled during instruction matching
we first trying to find it among custom instructions. If it has been
found the search is stopped and custom instruction is executed,
otherwise we look for it among standard instructions. Overall this
change does not completely fix the problem but at least makes it
possible to use the feature of RISC-V ISA.

To avoid long CI times, keep the program in binary form.
To avoid storing binary files in this repository, store the binaries as
an asset on a github release.
