If prefixed instructions are made unavailable by the [H]FSCR, attempting
to use them will cause a facility unavailable exception. Add "PREFIX" to
the facility_strings[].

Currently there are no prefixed instructions that are actually emulated
by emulate_instruction() within facility_unavailable_exception().
However, when caused by a prefixed instructions the SRR1 PREFIXED bit is
set. Prepare for dealing with emulated prefixed instructions by checking
for this bit.

Oh you've got it here, I would just squash this together with the first
patch.

Thanks,
Nick
