x86/insn-eval: Compute linear address in several utility functions

Computing a linear address involves several steps. The first step is to
compute the effective address. This requires determining the addressing
mode in use and perform arithmetic operations on the operands. Plus, each
addressing mode has special cases that must be handled.

Once the effective address is known, the base address of the applicable
segment is added to obtain the linear address.

Clearly, this is too much work for a single function. Instead, handle each
addressing mode in a separate utility function. This improves readability
and gives us the opportunity to handler errors better.

At the moment, arithmetic to compute the effective address uses 64-byte
variables. Thus, limit support to 64-bit addresses.

While reworking the function insn_get_addr_ref(), the variable addr_offset
is renamed as regoff to reflect its actual use (i.e., offset, from the
base of pt_regs, of the register used as operand).
