x86: shrink some struct insn_template fields
Now that all base opcodes are only at most 2 bytes in size, shrink its template field to just as much. By also shrinking extension_opcode and operands to just what they really need, we can free up an entire 32-bit slot (plus 4 left bits past the bitfields themselves). At present this alters sizeof(struct insn_template) only for 32-bit builds. In 64-bit builds it instead leaves a padding hole that will allow to buffer future growth of other fields (opcode_modifier, cpu_flags, operand_types[]).
