env could contain a pointer to (static const) structure describing the
CPU features. This pointer would be copied to corresponding
DisasContext feature pointer, to be used by the translation functions.
See for example target-sparc: translate.c (CHECK_IU_FEATURE macro) and
helper.c for CPU definitions. IIRC MIPS or ARM have even nicer macros.
