Fix single stepping over the IT instruction

The ARM instruction emulator had 2 bugs related to the handling of the
IT instruction causing an error in single stepping:
* We haven't initialized the IT mask from the CPSR so if the last
  instruction of the IT block is a branch and the condition is false
  then the emulator evaluated the branch what resulted in an incorrect
  pc for the next instruction.
* The ITSTATE was advanced before the execution of each instruction. As
  a result the emulator was using the condition of following instruction
  in every case. The ITSTATE should be edvanced after the execution of
  an instruction except after an IT instruction.
