x86: drop stray W
The flag is used to indicate opcodes which can be switched between byte and word/dword/qword forms (in a "canonical" way). Obviously it's quite odd then to see it on insns not allowing for byte operands in the first place. As a result the opcode bytes need to be adjusted accordingly, which includes comparisons done in optimize_encoding(). To make re-introduction of such issues less likely have i386-gen diagnose it (in a generally non-fatal way for now).
