Fix AArch64 encodings for by element instructions.
Some instructions in Armv8-a place a limitation on FP16 registers that can be used as the register from which to select an element from. e.g. fmla restricts Rm to 4 bits when using an FP16 register. This restriction does not apply for all instructions, e.g. fcmla does not have this restriction as it gets an extra bit from the M field. Unfortunately, this restriction to S_H was added for all _Em operands before, meaning for a large number of instructions you couldn't use the full register file. This fixes the issue by introducing a new operand _Em16 which applies this restriction only when paired with S_H and leaves the _Em and the other qualifiers for _Em16 unbounded (i.e. using the full 5 bit range). Also the patch updates all instructions that should be affected by this. opcodes/ PR binutils/23192 * aarch64-asm-2.c: Regenerate. * aarch64-dis-2.c: Likewise. * aarch64-opc-2.c: Likewise. * aarch64-dis.c (aarch64_ext_reglane): Add AARCH64_OPND_Em16 constraint. * aarch64-opc.c (operand_general_constraint_met_p, aarch64_print_operand): Likewise. * aarch64-tbl.h (aarch64_opcode_table): Change Em to Em16 for smlal, smlal2, fmla, fmls, fmul, fmulx, sqrdmlah, sqrdlsh, fmlal, fmlsl, fmlal2, fmlsl2.
