Why this change is made & How it will be used:
The Sun-3 ROM expects the Cache Control Register (CAAR) to exist on the 68020. 
Reading/writing this register currently aborts QEMU. This patch provides a 
dummy implementation that simply ignores writes and returns 0 on reads, 
allowing the ROM to continue booting.

Impact on existing functionality:
No impact on existing targets. ColdFire and Mac targets do not access CAAR in a 
way that currently aborts, and providing a safe dummy implementation ensures 
robustness across M68k boards.
