Internally we store constants in int64_t after parsing, but this is
kind of an implementation detail. If we only supported rv32, we might
have chosen int32_t.
For rv32, I think it makes sense to accept the constants that we
would accept if int32_t was the internal type. In fact we already
do this for the li alias. This patch extends this to sign
extended constants for other instructions.
This matches the GNU assembler. The difference between LLVM and gcc
was previously noted here. https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-asm-manual/pull/71
