Ensures EVENT_INSTRUCTION written to replay.bin before EVENT_SHUTDOWN_HOST_QMP

During the record pass, test_reverse_debug writes a sequence of
instructions to replay.bin. Presumably due to a race condition or
host's async implementation details, the resulting file looks like:

...
12: EVENT_CP_CLOCK_WARP_ACCOUNT(31) no additional data  
13: EVENT_INSTRUCTION(0) + 59 -> 44298  
14: EVENT_CP_CLOCK_WARP_ACCOUNT(31) no additional data  
15: EVENT_SHUTDOWN_HOST_QMP_QUIT(12)  
16: EVENT_INSTRUCTION(0) + 5587988 -> 5632286  
17: EVENT_SHUTDOWN_HOST_SIGNAL(14)  
18: EVENT_END(39)  
Reached 162 of 162 bytes

Here, SHUTDOWN_HOST_QMP_QUIT is written before the last instruction
event. During the replay pass, QUIT is executed before the last
instruction, which causes the VM to shut down. As a result, the QMP
and GDB connections are broken, and the test cannot execute its final
steps.

Adding replay_save_instructions ensures EVENT_INSTRUCTION is written
before EVENT_SHUTDOWN_HOST_QMP_QUIT.

Tested on my arm64. This does not fix the bug on x86_64. The x86_64
case seems similar, but slightly different.
