If `shift` later becomes zero, we end up trying to emit a rotate with a 32/64 shift value which triggers an assert.

I've also noticed that the corresponding assert is not strong enough for `roll` and `rorl` (probably the author used the assert corresponding to the 64-bit version by accident). The patch also includes some refactoring.

Looks good.
