Norman Feske 0c299c5e08 base: separate native CPU from CPU session
This patch unifies the CPU session interface across all platforms. The
former differences are moved to respective "native-CPU" interfaces.

NOVA is not covered by the patch and still relies on a custom version of
the core-internal 'cpu_session_component.h'. However, this will soon be
removed once the ongoing rework of pause/single-step on NOVA is
completed.

Fixes #1922
