Identify non-extensible instructions in the MIPS16 opcode table and 
disallow their use with the `.e' instruction size suffix in assembly and 
do not interpret any EXTEND prefix present as a part of the instruction 
in disassembly.

According to all versions of the MIPS16 ASE specifications the following 
instructions encodings are not extensible [1][2][3][4][5][6]: I8/MOV32R, 
I8/MOVR32, all RRR minor opcodes, all RR minor opcodes except from DSRA 
and DSRL, and EXTEND itself, and as from revision 2.50 of the MIPS16e 
ASE specifications it has been further clarified what was previously 
implied, that non-extesiable instructions when preceded with an EXTEND 
prefix must cause a Reserved Instruction exception [3][5].

Therefore in the presence of an EXTEND prefix none of these instructions 
are supposed to be handled as extended instructions and supporting these 
forms in disassembly causes confusion, and in the case of the RRR major 
opcode it also clashes with the ASMACRO encoding.
