Thanks for the feedback! I'll clean up the patches and address your
comments in the next revision.

The patch adding RVC to the RV32 JIT is forthcoming; some of the
optimizations there are more difficult since the RV32 JIT makes more
use of "internal" jumps whose offsets depend on the sizes of emitted
instructions. I plan to clean up that code and add RVC support in a
future series.
