x86 nativeGen: Fix test with mask in range [128,255] (#13425)
My commit bdb0c43c7 optimized the encoding of instructions to test
tag bits, but it did not always set exactly the same condition codes
since the testb instruction does a single-byte comparison, rather
than a full-word comparison.
It would be correct to optimize the expression `x .&. 128 > 0` to
the sequence
testb $128, %al
seta %al ; note: 'a' for unsigned comparison,
; not 'g' for signed comparison
but the pretty-printer is not the right place to make this kind of
context-sensitive optimization.
