Excellent.

Looks like it wouldn't take too much additional work for z15, if you're of a
mind while we're at it.

Message-Security-Assist 9:
        KDSA to ignore, like KMA.

Miscellaneous-Instruction-Extensions 3:
        A bunch of logical operations, all of which
        already have tcg primitives.

        SELECT, which can re-use op_loc with different inputs.

        MOVE RIGHT TO LEFT, which can't reuse do_helper_mvc
        directly, but could be a copy with trivial changes.

        Trivial changes to op_popcnt.

Vector-Enhancements 2:
        Mostly load/store byte-reversed.
        New vector shift insns.
        FP/Int conversions.
        Vector string search.
