While I have quite a few more pieces almost ready, and there are likely
yet more to come, I wanted to continue getting out at least some of this.

1: x86-64: have value properly checked when resolving fixup
2: x86: optimize LEA
3: x86: honor signedness of PC-relative relocations
4: x86: limit 32-bit @size overflow checks to 64-bit objects
5: x86: add IS_ELF to check whether to resolve @size reloc
6: x86: allow @size to also (sensibly) apply to sections
7: x86: relax when/how @size can be used
8: x86: correct overflow checking for 16-bit PC-relative relocs
