SPDX is an international standard for documenting software license
requirements. Remove the existing headers and replace with a brief
SPDX preamble.
See: https://spdx.dev/use/specifications/
The script used to convert the files is added to "tools", and the
file header templates in headers/ are updated.

Tag pseudo-instructions explicitly and don't set any CPU level flag
for those.
Change insnsa.c to have (length, pointer) rather than using an ever
increasing in size sentinel at the end of each table. This also means
that empty tables (Dx, INCBIN) can be omitted entirely.

Add more instruction macros and fix problems. Adjust some matching
problems.
Remove all FUTURE tags from the instruction list, and add a bunch of
new CPUID tags. Hopefully a small step toward actually getting CPU
feature selection working properly in the future.

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.

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".

For VEX instructions created *after* the corresponding EVEX
instructions, we need the user to either explicitly declare them {vex}
or specifying "cpu latevex".

The flags massaging in insns.pl could end up with things like double
commas in some pathological cases, which would make insns_flag_index()
very unhappy due to the appearance of an empty argument. Fix this by
processing the flags as a list already in insns.pl.
Be more explicit and consistent in error messages.

Add comments to iflag.c so a human user can have any hope of

Move the definitions to a separate file, in order to separate code
from data better.
We can auto-generate more information about the instruction flags, so
let's do so.

Automatically assign values to the instruction flags; we ended up with
a case where pushing flags into the next dword caused comparison
failures due to other places in the code explicitly comparing
field[3].
This creates necessary defines for this not to happen; it also cleans
up a fair bit of the iflag code.
This resolves BR 3392454.
