Previously, YJIT assumed that basic blocks never consume more than
1 KiB of memory. This assumption does not hold for long Ruby methods
such as the one in the following:
```ruby
eval(<<RUBY)
def set_local_a_lot
#{'_=0;'*0x40000}
end
RUBY
set_local_a_lot
```
For low `--yjit-exec-mem-size` values, one basic block could exhaust the
entire buffer.
Introduce a new field `codeblock_t::dropped_bytes` that the assembler
sets whenever it runs out of space. Check this field in
gen_single_block() to respond to out of memory situations and other
error conditions. This design avoids making the control flow graph of
existing code generation functions more complex.
Use POSIX shell in misc/test_yjit_asm.sh since bash is expanding
`0%/*/*` differently.

Some platforms don't want memory to be marked as writeable and
executable at the same time. When we write to the code block, we
calculate the OS page that the buffer position maps to. Then we call
`mprotect` to allow writes on that particular page. As an optimization,
we cache the "last written" aligned page which allows us to amortize the
cost of the `mprotect` call. In other words, sequential writes to the
same page will only call `mprotect` on the page once.
When we're done writing, we call `mprotect` on the entire JIT buffer.
This means we don't need to keep track of which pages were marked as
writeable, we let the OS take care of that.

* YJIT: use shorter encoding for mov(r64,imm) when unambiguous
Previously, for small constants such as `mov(RAX, imm_opnd(Qundef))`,
we emit an instruction with an 8-byte immediate. This form commonly
gets the `movabs` mnemonic.
In 64-bit mode, 32-bit operands get zero extended to 64-bit to fill the
register, so when the immediate is small enough, we can save 4 bytes by
using the `mov` variant that takes a 32-bit immediate and does a zero
extension.
Not implement with this change, there is an imm32 variant of `mov` that
does sign extension we could use. When the constant is negative, we
fallback to the `movabs` form.
In railsbench, this change yields roughly a 12% code size reduction for
the outlined block.
