John Gilmore added insn_type for SPARC back in 1993. There was never
any attempt to implement it for all architectures. I'm not sure that
anything actually uses the information. In any case, it's not
intentionally omitted, it was just never implemented. It's not
particular difficult to implement for any given architecture, but it
can be tedious.
