If case of a vm_event with the emulate_flags set, if the instruction
is not implemented by the emulator, the monitor should be notified instead
of directly injecting a hw exception.
This behavior can be used to re-execute an instruction not supported by
the emulator using the real processor (e.g. altp2m) instead of just
crashing.
