[PATCH v7 11/26] x86/insn-eval: Add utility function to get segment descriptor

The segment descriptor contains information that is relevant to how linear
address need to be computed. It contains the default size of addresses as
well as the base address of the segment. Thus, given a segment selector,
we ought look at segment descriptor to correctly calculate the linear
address.

In protected mode, the segment selector might indicate a segment
descriptor from either the global descriptor table or a local descriptor
table. Both cases are considered in this function.

This function is the initial implementation for subsequent functions that
will obtain the aforementioned attributes of the segment descriptor.
