Add a optimization frameword for operand narrowing (where the operand
size doesn't matter beyond a certain range because only certain bits
are referenced.)
Add a macro *and* matching facility for dealing with segment selectors, which are
typically rm16/r32/r64, but exactly how that is applied varies
depending on if a datum is read or written.

This is a WIP checkpoint; not all tests pass yet.
More matching changes, and hopefully something much closer to what
really is desired now. The number of required patterns is now much
smaller.
However, a lot of *changes* are needed to the patterns.
Since some patterns are repeated all over the place, clean up the
x86/addflags.pl script and make it able to generate macro-based
common patterns; first use being the patterns for the "basic 8"
arithmetic patterns.

Implement the JMPABS instruction, which can also be specified as JMP
ABS for consistency. Since ABS is already a keyword, this does not
pollute the namespace.

EVEX encoding is really messy, with the 4th register bit in one of
several places depending on which type of register it is. It seems to
work now.

a
Support generating code for APX instruction and add support for the
{nf} prefix.
No disassembler support yet, and only a handful instructions encoded.

Change the byte code format and the byte code compiler to be able to
generate various kinds of APX-format instructions.
THE NEW BYTE CODES ARE NOT YET IMPLEMENTED IN THE ASSEMBLER OR
DISASSEMBLER.

{dfv=} is basically a constant (immediate). Treat it as such during
parsing, except that if "naked" (not in an expression), it has special
matching properties and does not need a terminal comma.

Doing the register range flags by hand is a bit more work than
necessary when dealing with APX, so auto-generate the flags for ranges
{0, 1-15, 16+} using 3 bits.
In theory we could handle even more automagically by splitting ranges
up further: the existing ranges are sets of {0, 1, 2, 3, 4-5, 6-7,
8-15, 16-31} which would require 7 bits, although it would remove most
of the subclass bits for registers; it would require separating the
subclass bits for EAs from the ones for registers (which might be a
good idea anyway...)

So we can test for out of bound access and make
helpers safe to use.

Support the +n syntax for multiple contiguous registers, and emit it
in the output from ndisasm as well.

Make the source code easier to understand and keep track of by
organizing it into subdirectories depending on the function.
