arch-riscv: rvc instruction is mistaken as branch

Fetch in O3CPU mistakes the normal non-branching compressed
instructions, and regards it as a branch. This issue interrupts
the consecutive instruction stream, thus affecting performance
of cpu front-end.
This fix sets the compressed for PCState during decoding.
