Leave any_extend as pseudo instruction and hint to register
allocator. Delay codegen until post register allocation.
+Note. any_extend is now turned into an INSERT_SUBREG. We still need to teach

Sometimes it is better to codegen subtractions from a constant (e.g. 7-x) with
a neg instead of a sub instruction. Consider:
