Improve x86 assembler error message.

2010-02-25  H.J. Lu  <hongjiu.lu@intel.com>

	* config/tc-i386.c (_i386_insn): Add err_msg.
	(operand_size_match): Set err_msg on failure.
	(operand_type_match): Likewise.
	(operand_type_register_match): Likewise.
	(VEX_check_operands): Likewise.
	(match_template): Likewise.  Use i.err_msg with as_bad.
