Work through a number of changes toward making matching a lot saner,
both to reduce the number of patterns to generate for APX but also to
make a number of code patterns simpler.
This replaces a fair number of byte codes.
Improve a number of error messages, especially related to overflows.
Move process_insn() from nasm.c to assemble.c, as it really is the
primary entry point to the assembler module.
Reorder some prefixes. In particular, F2/F3 override 66 when used as a
mandatory prefix, so it makes more sense for them to be closer to the
opcode.
Move a lot more information into struct insn. It is better to have it
in one place; memory consumption is not an issue because struct insn
is transient information.
Get rid of "optimization levels" and replace it with a mask of
flags. That was already halfway done; complete the job.
Replace seg:offset in struct out_data with a struct location. It would
be better to extend this to more places, too.
The ARx and SMx flags are now explicit bitmasks, instead of having a
couple of hard-coded ranges.
Add __func__ to assert or panic messages.
Because of prefix and message changes, a number of travis tests had to
be audited and updated.
Fix a number of instruction patterns which had .128 when they ought to
be .lig. This is no longer a minor issue with the disassembler: for
AVX10, the pattern vector length determines how SAE/RC are encoded,
and there is no valid 128-bit encoding. However, with .lig the 512-bit
encoding can be used.
Separate "o64nw" into two pieces: opsize 64 and "nw" = "REX.w not necessary". The
latter can be included in non-64-bit patterns. "o64" still set REX.W
since that is still the common thing.
New "osz" bytecode: emit an OSP *or* REX.W depending on the current
mode and operand size. Useful for special cases like "nop" where "o64
nop" probably wants to be encoded as "48 90".

The use of pass0, pass1, pass2, and "pass" passed as an argument is
really confusing and already caused a severe bug in the 2.14.01
release cycle. Clean them up and be far more explicit about what
various passes mean.

In order to support Mach-O better, add support for subsections, as
used by Mach-O "subsections_via_symbols". We also want to add
infrastructure to support this by downcalling to the backend to
indicate if a new subsection is needed.
Currently this supports a maximum of 2^14 subsections per section for
Mach-O; this can be addressed by adding a level of indirection (or
cleaning up the handling of sections so we have an actual data
structure.)

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