Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the existing INSTR_CREATE_nop macros, then compare their byte sequences with the versions added by #3868. Inspect api.ir for the current API tests. Done means updating the existing multi-byte nop macros, adding INSTR_CREATE_RAW_nop9byte() and the intervening versions, and adding coverage for the new macros.
