My concern is that if it's almost same (with 7709) in terms of
peripherals, it would be good _not_ to have CONFIG class of its own.
Instead, make the class of 7707/7709/7709A/7729, and when needed (and
possible), distingush on runtime.

Also, if someone will work for SH7702 and SH7718, we will define the
CONFIG class of SH7702/SH7708/SH7718.  I think that we can distingush
SH7702 and SH7708 by the size of cache, SH7708 and SH7718 by the
existence of FPU.

Further, if there's good way to fixup the code on runtime, we don't
need to CONFIG class of CPU on compile time, provided it won't
complicate the code much.
