a) remove opIsUse(), opIsDefOnly(), opIsDefAndUse()
b) add isUse(), isDef()
c) rename opHiBits32() to isHiBits32(),
opLoBits32() to isLoBits32(),
opHiBits64() to isHiBits64(),
opLoBits64() to isLoBits64().
This results to much more readable code, for example compare
"op.opIsDef() || op.opIsDefAndUse()" to "op.isDef()" a pattern used
very often in the code.

folding of instructions into addressing modes. This creates lots of dead
instructions, which are currently not deleted. It also creates a lot of
instructions that the X86 backend currently cannot handle. :(

C is a constant which can be sign-extended from 8 bits without value loss,
and op is one of: add, sub, imul, and, or, xor.
This allows the JIT to emit the one byte version of the constant instead of
the two or 4 byte version. Because these instructions are very common, this
can save a LOT of code space. For example, I sampled two benchmarks, 176.gcc
and 254.gap.
BM Old New Reduction
176.gcc 2673621 2548962 4.89%
254.gap 498261 475104 4.87%
Note that while the percentage is not spectacular, this did eliminate
124.6 _KILOBYTES_ of codespace from gcc. Not bad.
Note that this doesn't effect the llc version at all, because the assembler
already does this optimization.
