//: Metadata for fields of an x86 instruction.
//:
//: The x86 instruction set is variable-length, and how a byte is interpreted
//: affects later instruction boundaries. A lot of the pain in programming
//: machine code stems from computer and programmer going out of sync on what
//: a byte means. The miscommunication is usually not immediately caught, and
//: metastasizes at runtime into kilobytes of misinterpreted instructions.
//:
//: To mitigate these issues, we'll start programming in terms of logical
//: arguments rather than physical bytes. Some arguments are smaller than a
//: byte, and others may consist of multiple bytes. This layer will correctly
//: pack and order the bytes corresponding to the arguments in an instruction.
