FCVT doesn't necessarily round to zero, so the result
might be inaccurate if we use it. To ensure correct
rounding, we use FCVTS from double FPR to 32-bit GPR.
Unfortunately, FCVTS can't do double FPR to single FPR.
This is now unused. Seems like it was an improper fix
(there would be a race if saving the screenshot took longer
than 2 seconds) back when it was used too.
The intent here is to generate a more compact instruction if a 32-bit
immediate can be zero-extended to the desired 64-bit immediate.
Nowadays the emitter is smart enough to do this for us, so this logic is
redundant.
There's no need to load the 64-bit immediate into a temporary register.
x64 will sign-extend 32-bit immediates to 64 bits, giving us the exact
value we need in this case.

- LEA is a bit silly when the source and the destination are the same. A
simple ADD or SHL will do in those cases.

- When scaling by 2, consider summing the register with itself instead.
The former always needs a 32-bit displacement, so the sum is more
compact.

It is my opinion that nobody should use NKit disc images without
being aware of the drawbacks of them. Since it seems like almost
nobody who is using NKit disc images knows what NKit is (hmm, now
how could that have happened...?), I am adding a warning to Dolphin
so that you can't run NKit disc images without finding out about the
drawbacks. In case someone really does want to use NKit disc images,
the warning has a "Don't show this again" option. Unfortunately, I
can't retroactively add the warning where it's most needed:
in Dolphin 5.0, which does not support Wii NKit disc images.
Pretty much the same optimization we did for AVX, although slightly more
constrained because we're stuck with the two-operand instruction where
destination and source have to match.
We could also specialize the case where registers b, c, and d are all
distinct, but I decided against it since I couldn't find any game that
does this.

AVX has a four-operand VBLENDVPD instruction, which allows for the first
input and the destination to be different. By taking advantage of this,
we no longer need to copy one of the inputs around and we can just
reference it directly, provided it's already in a register (I have yet
to see this not be the case).
