Improve consistency by allowing contracted forms for EVEX-encoded
instructions when it's allowed for similar VEX-encoded instructions.
Previously the behavior would change depending on the vector size or
the register number which could be somewhat confusing:
vaddps xmm0, xmm1 ; ok
vaddps ymm0, ymm1 ; ok
vaddps zmm0, zmm1 ; error
vaddps xmm0, xmm16 ; error
Also allow contracted forms for a few additional older AVX instructions
where it makes sense.

NASM, the Netwide Assembler.
Many many developers all over the net respect NASM for what it is
- a widespread (thus netwide), portable (thus netwide!), very
flexible and mature assembler tool with support for many output
formats (thus netwide!!).
Now we have good news for you: NASM is licensed under the "simplified"
(2-clause) BSD license. This means its development is open to even
wider society of programmers wishing to improve their lovely
assembler.
The NASM project is now situated at SourceForge.net, the most
popular Open Source development site on the Internet.
