// TODO: how does register 15 fit into all of below? As an operand or as a target?
// TODO: ensure R15 is handled correctly.
//
// From the data sheet:
//
// # Writing to R15
//
// When Rd is a register other than R15, the condition code flags in the PSR may be
// updated from the ALU flags as described above. When Rd is R15 and the S flag in
// the instruction is set, the PSR is overwritten by the corresponding ALU result
// ... in user mode the other flags (I, F, M1, M0) are protected from direct change
// but in non-user modes these will also be affected, accepting copies of bits 27, 26,
// 1 and 0 of the result respectively.
//
// ...
//
// If the S flag is clear when Rd is R15, only the 24 PC bits of R15 will be written.
// Conversely, if the instruction is of a type which does not normally produce a result
// (CMP, CMN, TST, TEQ) but Rd is R15 and the S bit is set, the result will be used in
// this case to update those PSR flags which are not protected by virtue of the
// processor mode.
//
// # Using R15 as an operand
//
// When R15 appears in the Rm position it will give the value of the PC together
// with the PSR flags to the barrel shifter.
//
// When R15 appears in either of the Rn or Rs positions it will give the value
// of the PC alone, with the PSR bits replaced by zeroes.
//
// The PC value will be the address of the instruction, plus 8 or 12 bytes due to
// instruction prefetching. If the shift amount is specified in the instruction, the
// PC will be 8 bytes ahead. If a register is used to specify the shift amount, the
// PC will be 8 bytes ahead when used as Rs and 12 bytes ahead when used as Rn
// or Rm.
