[PATCH] i386/x86-64: rename is_at_popf(), add iret to tests and fix

is_at_popf() needs to test for the iret instruction as well as
popf.  So add that test and rename it to is_setting_trap_flag().

Also change max insn length from 16 to 15 to match reality.

LAHF / SAHF can't affect TF, so the comment in x86_64 is removed.
