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.
