I don't really see the need for these kinds of asserts.  If the instruction
isn't available we're going to assert later anyway.  The problem with asserting
here too is that (as this patch proves) it's very hard to maintain the
consistent duplication of information without some kind of automatic help.

I'd prefer to go for consistency the other way and remove
!mips_opts.micromips asserts that are only there because there's no
underlying microMIPS instruction.  This includes the one in the earlier
SAA(D) patch.

Thanks,
Richard
