*itype* can be 3 or 4 bits wide. If _itype_width_p_ is 3, a single code
(6) is used to indicate all uninferable jumps. This is simpler to
implement, but precludes use of the implicit return mode (see
<<sec:implicit-return>>), which requires jump types to be fully classified.
<<sec:implicit-return>>), which requires jump types to be fully classified.
Note that when _itype_width_p_ is 3, *itype* = 0 is used for inferrable calls.
However, inferrable calls must still be the final instruction retired in a
block, otherwise the block would not be comprised of contiguous instructions.

Whilst *iaddr* is typically a virtual address, it does not affect the
encoder's behavior if it is a physical address.
