[MIPS] Reimplement clear_page/copy_page



Fold the SB-1 specific implementation of clear_page/copy_page in the
generic version, and rewrite that one in tlbex style. The immediate
benefits:
  - It converts the compile-time workaround for SB-1 pass 1 prefetches
    to a more efficient run-time check.
  - It allows adjustment of loop unfolling, which helps to reduce the
    number of redundant cdex cache ops.
  - It fixes some esoteric cornercases (the cache line length calculations
    can go wrong, and support for 64k pages without prefetch instructions
    will overflow the addiu immediate).
  - Somewhat better guesses of "good" prefetch values.
