Target description can be modeled as a tree, the target description
is the root node, features are children nodes, registers and types are
grand-children nodes. So command "maint print c-tdesc" in effect
traverse/visit each node, and print them in c. This can be
implemented by visitor pattern, this is the first reason. Secondly,
I want to this command prints c files in a different way for some
specific xml files, but still print c files the same way for the rest
of xml files. Third, I even want to print xml files from target
descriptions, so that GDBserver can use it to reply GDB's query
qXfer:features:read:target.xml.
After this change, all features/*.c should be re-generated, but
this patch only includes part changes features/*.c files.
