both the assembler, and the emulator.
I finally figured out how I could get support for the
Ortho extension implemented into the old assembler.
The only reason for doing this, is to buy me some
while I start work on the new assembler, and to help
me get an idea for how to do the same in the new
assembler.

This is the biggest milestone I've reached for this
project, since the base extension changes alot about
what Sux can do by default, and now makes it a viable
instruction set for modern day use, when compared
with other instruction sets.

instruction formatting simpler.
- Refactored the instruction table of the emulator's
assembler, it now has two parts, the addressing mode
bits, and the base value.
The base value is what's used to generate the actual
opcode, with the addressing mode bits telling the
assembler what addressing modes this instruction
supports.
The reason for doing this was to use less space. For
comparison, the previous version used 870 bytes for
the instruction table, while the new version uses
only 222 bytes. The new version is nearly 4 times
smaller than the pervious version.
- The B register based ALU instructions now use their
own addressing mode, and are specified by using 'b'
as the operand for those instructions.
For example, to add the Accumulator with the B
register, you now use "ADC B" instead of "AAB".

- Added a new preifx called the OF prefix, which adds
the contents of a specific register to the current
operand.
- Added a table generator, which parses opcode table
csv files.

The reason for doing this was because JSL, and RTL are
redundent, as they both do the same thing as JSR, and
RTS.

functions.
I did this to make it more readable, while still
making it fast, due to inlining it.
