Peter Zijlstra 78df6245c3 objtool,x86: Support %riz encodings
When there's a SIB byte, the register otherwise denoted by r/m will
then be denoted by SIB.base REX.b will now extend this. SIB.index == SP
is magic and notes an index value zero.

This means that there's a bunch of alternative (longer) encodings for
the same thing. Eg. 'ModRM.mod != 3, ModRM.r/m = AX' can be encoded as
'ModRM.mod != 3, ModRM.r/m = SP, SIB.base = AX, SIB.index = SP' which is actually 4
different encodings because the value of SIB.scale is irrelevant,
giving rise to 5 different but equal encodings.

Support these encodings and clean up the SIB handling in general.
