There are no priviledge checks, so these instructions will all work in all
modes.

This fixes a problem where interpreting arbitrary bits as floating point would
change what the value was. These values are legitimate because the fp
registers could be used to move around arbitrary data.

The new implementation uses metaclass, and gives a lot more precise control
with a lot less verbosity. The flags/no flags reg/imm variants are all handled
by the same python class now which supplies a constructor to the right C++
class based on context.

There is a fundemental flaw in how unaligned accesses are supported, but this
is still an improvement.

Make instructions observe segment prefixes, default segment rules, segment
base addresses.
Also fix some microcode and add sib and riprel "keywords" to the x86
specialization of the microassembler.

The instructions now ask for the appropriate flags to be set, and the microops do the "right thing" with the CF and OF flags, namely zero them.

These functions take care of calling the thread contexts read and write functions with the right sized data type, and handle unaligned accesses.

The carry flag should be calculated using the -complement- of the second operand, not it's negation. The carry in which is part of computing the 2's complement may induce a carry, but if you've already caused the carry before you get the carry computing logic involved, it will miss it.

Make the emulation environment consider the rex prefix.
Implement and hook in forms of j, jmp, cmp, syscall, movzx
Added a format for an instruction to carry a call to the SE mode syscalls system
Made memory instructions which refer to the rip do so directly
Made the operand size overridable in the microassembly
Made the "ext" field of register operations 16 bits to hold a sparse encoding of flags to set or conditions to predicate on
Added an explicit "rax" operand for the syscall format
Implemented syscall returns.

This doesn't handle high byte register accesses. It also highlights the fact that address size isn't actually being calculated, and that the size a microop uses needs to be overridable from the microassembly.

Some microops can set the condition codes, and some of them can be predicated on them. Some of the codes aren't implemented because it was unclear from the AMD patent what they actually did. They are used with string instructions, but they use variables IP, DTF, and SSTF which don't appear to be documented.

1. Microops are created. These are StaticInsts use templates to provide a basic form of polymorphism without having to make the microassembler smarter.
2. An instruction class is created which has a "templated" microcode program as it's docstring. The template parameters are refernced with ^ following by a number.
3. An instruction in the decoder references an instruction template using it's mnemonic. The parameters to it's format end up replacing the placeholders. These parameters describe a source for an operand which could be memory, a register, or an immediate. It it's a register, the register index is used. If it's memory, eventually a load/store will be pre/postpended to the instruction template and it's destination register will be used in place of the ^. If it's an immediate, the immediate is used. Some operand types, specifically those that come from the ModRM byte, need to be decoded further into memory vs. register versions. This is accomplished by making the decode_block text for these instructions another case statement based off ModRM.
4. Once all of the template parameters have been handled, the instruction goes throw the microcode assembler which resolves labels and creates a list of python op objects. If an operand is a register, it uses a % prefix, an immediate uses $, and a label uses @. If the operand is just letters, numbers, and underscores, it can appear immediately after the prefix. If it's not, it can be encolsed in non nested {}s.
5. If there is a single "op" object (which corresponds to a single microop) the decoder is set up to return it directly. If not, a macroop wrapper is created around it.
In the future, I'm considering seperating the operand type specialization from the template substitution step. A problem this introduces is that either the template arguments need to be kept around for the specialization step, or they need to be re-extracted. Re-extraction might be the way to go so that the operand formats can be coded directly into the micro assembler template without having to pass them in as parameters. I don't know if that's actually useful, though.
