Research direction

The issue points to Felix Cloutier's x86 instruction list and the OSDev and Wikipedia register references; use them as the completeness checklist. No source file or test is named, so first locate micro's assembly syntax definition, then verify that xmm16–xmm31, ymm16–ymm31, and the cited Xeon Phi and vector instructions are represented.
